NSPR/NSS build system are a relic of pre-libtool era. There's no
need to invent a version that no other downstream maintains,
especially if it causes subtle bugs like the following:

$ cc -lplds4 -L/usr/local/lib
/usr/lib/crt1.o: In function `_start1':
crt1_c.c:(.text+0xa6): undefined reference to `main'
/usr/local/lib/libplds4.so: undefined reference to `pthread_set_name_np'
