If you are building your own copies of NSS on fedora, I strongly suggest

don't know anyone that had to copy good NSS binaries onto a USB drive to
recover his machine....;).

Oh believe me, I've found out the hard way myself as well. Apparently someone has found a way around this and I used the procedure from here:
http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/ECC_Capable_NSS#Alternate_Approach_-_Build_and_Install

Basically it amounts to adding "export FREEBL_NO_DEPEND=1" to the normal course of things. It worked for me and I don't appear to have borked my system.
