Thanks for reviewing this! I was about to look into more recent nss
issues after handling dhcpcd but since you're at it, go ahead!
Note that we still have CVE-2015-4000 which would most easily be fixed
by having the same nss in all suites but since I got zero feedback from
the release team going that route doesn't seem to be an option. We could
still handle this via sec updates though.
Until that it might make sense to add
https://github.com/agx/nss-debian/commit/98ff42c58343d70b1b51c8c997b471822c1675f1
also at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=806639
which (in addition to the certificate test I added) runs the standard
nss test cycle as autopkgtest. I've tested this with the sid version but
not with wheezy/jessie yet.
Cheers,
