I believe there's something available called KeyManager that should
help, from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4471 . It
uses XPCOM IDL to access the platform security module. (It also has
an explicit .xpi signing option; I don't know if that will help, but
it might be useful.)
Thanks Kyle. However, the KeyManager extension has 5 dlls and it has an
MPL license so I would not be able to redistribute it. It is way more
sophisticated than what I have in mind. I just want something that takes
a key and a string then returns the signature.

The Mccoy program,
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/McCoy
can sign update.rdf files. It has a dll to support the signature work. I
wonder if something has improved in the firefox code base since the time
Mccoy was written, such that the signature work can now be done without the
dll. I would like to support signatures in an extension I am writing, but I
can't distribute the dll with the extension, and the dll is not available
outside of the Mccoy program.
Thanks,
