FWIW, Camino has no UI for adding a PKCS#11 module for smartcard support.
However, Camino is still using NSS under the hood, so you can simply copy
the secmod.db, key3.db, and cert8.db files from a smartcard-enabled install
of Firefox into Camino's directory under ~/Library/Application Support, and
it'll work. :)
