        The Java ES app server accesses the same PKCS#11 libraries through two different routes in a single process: (a) via the SunPKCS11 provider and (b) via NSS. PKCS#11 was not designed with this in mind and depending on the PKCS#11 libraries and the way consumers use them there could be several problems.

        In a discussion of the relevant teams, we have identified one issue that needs to be fixed. This is that libraries that do not support multi threading may not be used in this setup. We need to add a configuration option to reject such libraries.
