I haven't tried building it, but just from the look of it, it seems
that the procedure will fail if pkcs11_init() is called. So why do we
need stubs for the other two functions, which are called later?

I suggest putting the #if inside the functions rather than having
entirely separate stubs.

But anyway as this is already on v6, my feedback is minor and I should
have noticed this earlier...
