This bug also affects me.

I'm also trying to access the Firefox key store from Java and cannot do that.

I don't see why it's so hard to load NSS by yourself. I think that the provider should be removed from the java provider security file since it completely breaks all Java NSS implementations that do not just want access to the Crypto features of NSS (any FIPS or keystore operations require NSS to be loaded differently than the nssDbMode = noDb included in /etc/java-6-openjdk/security/nss.cfg)

Perhaps the config file located (by default) at /etc/java-6-openjdk/security/nss.cfg could be left there and the line "security.provider.9=sun.security.pkcs11.SunPKCS11 ${java.home}/lib/security/nss.cfg" could be commented out by default.
