Problem summary

• An attempt by an application to create a PrivateKeyEntry within
  a PKCS11 KeyStore can result in an "Object handle is invalid"
  exception.
  

Problem conclusion

• Code within the PKCS11KeyStore convertPrivKeyObj( ) method
  assumeed that it is responsible for cleaning up the PKCS11Object
  associated with the private key thatis passed to it.  The
  finalize( ) method of the keypassed in actually has that
  responsibility.  The offending snippet of code has been removed.
