Its usual to include a certificate with a PKCS#12 file so the pkcs12 utility
normally expects one. Until recently most (non OpenSSL) based software would
misbehave unless a certificate was present.

In OpenSSL 0.9.8-dev however you can create a PKCS#12 file without the
corresponding certificate using the -nocert option.
