It seems that if we have a Master Password set in ff, NSS will fail to deploy private key.

confirm this problem, having a master password set for the "software security device" yields
SEC_ERROR_TOKEN_NOT_LOGGED_IN (-8037, cf. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/ref/ssl/sslerr.html ) from generateKeyPair (chrome/content/ssl/CertificateManager.js)

KeyPair generation error: -8037

workaround: unset the password once, restart (keygen succeeds), reset the password. future startups ask for the password and succeed.
