The encryption routines keyring is using are not documented.  All 
information I got from the header files. When DES encryption is not 
supported, previous versions of keyring just gave up with a cryptic 
error message when creating the first record.  So I decided to query 
the sysFtrNumEncryption feature to check whether DES set. It seems 
that not all palms that support DES encryption also set this flag :(

I have to think about a different way.  Probably the best way is to 
invoke the DES encryption routine and check whether it works.
