Include "build/build_config.h" with the Chromium headers
below.

In the new style, the platform-specific ifdefs are after
the Chromium headers, so it is not necessary to include
"build/build_config.h" first.

Done.

Please do

  typedef struct SECKEYPrivateKeyStr SECKEYPrivateKey;
  typedef struct SECKEYPublicKeyStr SECKEYPublicKey;

and use SECKEYPrivateKey and SECKEYPublicKey below.

[mattm, 2011/11/04 02:39:14]

EC => elliptic curve (EC)

otherwise "EC" is never defined in this file.

Done.

Please add a TODO comment about adding a 'curve' parameter.

[wtc, 2011/11/03 02:17:50]

API DESIGN: I recommend that this class exports and imports
public key and private key using separate std::vector<uint8>
parameters.

Then the origin-bound certificate store will store them in
our special format.

[mattm, 2011/11/04 02:39:14]

Done.

[wtc, 2011/11/03 02:17:50]

We should name this function ExportEncryptedPrivateKey,
and it should take a 'password' parameter.

I also suggest that the public key be a separate output
parameter.

[mattm, 2011/11/04 02:39:14]

Done.

Nit: this class doesn't have any Find*() methods.
