I tried to debug the thing a little and the attached patch was needed
to have at least the signature already present in the file to be
listed (attention: it's not thread safe), it loads the libxmlsec1-nss
library for crypto.

But with that, when I tried to add a signature by selecting the
signature from the list box of signatures available and confirm, the
OOo crashes in libxmlsec1.

I tried with the FC5 stock OOo, from udate and ended up hitting the
same bug. I reported this to redhat bugzilla (redhat i#201305).

I gave up and was successfull in building m179 with digital signature
OK only with the prebuild mozilla files available on OOo site and
local libxmlsec.
