Thanks for working on this!

I don't think it's acceptable to reintroduce bundling for NSS, unless we
have strong reasons to.  We should rather introduce a new NSS variant at
a sufficient version in a prior commit.  NSS takes time to build, but
otherwise shouldn't be too difficult, if I recall correctly my
experience doing it.
