You mean your application is calling NSS_Initialize() multiple
times, whenever it needs to change db directory?

Why do you want to change the db directory while the application
is running?

This requirement was recently introduced to NSS to support the
Mozilla client's user profile switching feature.  You need
to call NSS_Shutdown() before you call NSS_Initialize() again.

By the way, NSS_Init() and NSS_InitReadWrite() are preferred
NSS initialization functions.  NSS_Initialize() was added to
help old NSS clients migrate to the new NSS 3.x releases.
You should use NSS_Init() or NSS_InitReadWrite() if possible.
