yeah, it only puts off the inevitable, basically I think it's looking
hopeless to use system xmlsec after all. I give up :-), really need to
get the upstream OOo xmlsecurity devs to consider updating their
internal libxmlsec to a new version and re-implement in terms of the new
api, especially as much of the new nss work in the later xmlsecs was
their own upstreamed work.
