     46   NSS 3.64 shared libraries are backwards-compatible with all older NSS 3.x shared libraries. A
     47   program linked with older NSS 3.x shared libraries will work with NSS 3.64 shared libraries
     48   without recompiling or relinking. Furthermore, applications that restrict their use of NSS APIs
     49   to the functions listed in NSS Public Functions will remain compatible with future versions of
     50   the NSS shared libraries.
