Fairly sure.  From Andreas Sterbenz's 2006 blog posting linked by Kostis in
comment #2 and #3, programs wishing to use this (not new) provider should add
it (ie "Security.insertProviderAt(nss, 1);" at runtime, and set up config file
as described.  So unless I have misunderstood completely, this is not a build
or configure issue for IcedTea.

Furthermore,

http://blogs.sun.com/andreas/entry/elliptic_curve_cryptography_in_java

indicates that the use of ECC depends on NSS library specifically compiled with
ECC support.  All signs point to Fedora's NSS library not being compiled as
such.  Thus the recommendation to open Red Hat bug wrt the nss (really I should
say nss-devel) package.

If you know something I don't (which is entirely likely), please reopen the
report and add info as required.
