Soalris 10 provide a new libary name "/usr/lib/libpkcs11.so".In the crypto function of J2SE5.0, this libary is used.
but there is this lib in Solris 8 nad Solaris 9.
in this case, because the customer has installed a security product make by Sun, while this security peoduct installing,it will make a symbolic link to /usr/lib/libpkcs11.so.
then in this OE,when J2SE use its crypto function,it will use the lib: /usr/lib/libpkcs11.so
while JVM call the function "C_GetFunctionList()",(in fact, there no such a function is this version of /usr/lib/libpkcs11.so provide by the security product.), will meet a exception. in this condition, we should ignore this exception and go on the process because this is no a fatal error, but it lead JVM crashed.
