 * because certain consumers of this protocol need to be built 
 * without linking in any special libraries. ie: the PKCS#11 module.
 * 
 * Thread locking
 * 
 * In order to use these functions in a module the following functions
 * must be defined somewhere, and provide appropriate locking for 
 * secure memory between threads:
