I can confirm the packages in the PPA fix the problem for firefox.
Testing was performed like so:

1. start a virtual machine with old nss and firefox
2. enable master password
3. enable NSS Internal FIPS PKCS #11 in 
Edit/Preferences/Advaned/Encryption/Security Devices
4. close firefox
5. start firefox -- will be prompted for master password at some point
6. close firefox
7. upgrade nss, firefox-3.5 and xulrunner-1.9.1
8. start firefox -- get "Could not initialize the application's security 
component...." message
9. install nss from PPA
10. start firefox -- no error; will be prompted for master password at some 
point
