Yes, the update caused some mighty weird behaviour, including making
network-manager disappear. Synaptic said that libnss3 was installed,
even though libnss3's properties told me it couldn't tell me the list of
installed files because the package wasn't installed. So reinstalling it
from Synaptic made no difference.

In the end I was able to reinstall it using dpkg -i on the cached deb
file in /var/cache/apt/archives.

Title:
  libnss3.so went missing after upgrade

Status in “ca-certificates” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “ca-certificates-java” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “nss” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  A bug in version 20110912ubuntu1 of the ca-certificates-java package,
  combined with an update to the ca-certificates package, resulted in
  the incorrect removal of the libnss3.so library from the filesystem of
  users who had these packages installed.  As this library is a
  dependency of core functionality, including the NetworkManager service
  which manages networks on the desktop, it is critical to restore this
  library to the system before rebooting; otherwise users may not have
  the network access needed to fix the problem.

  Users affected by this issue will see the following output on their
  system:

  $ dpkg -s libnss3 | grep Status
  Status: install ok installed
  $ ls /usr/lib/*-gnu/libnss3.so
  ls: cannot access /usr/lib/*-gnu/libnss3.so: No such file or directory
  $

  Affected users should run the following command to restore the deleted
  library:

  $ sudo apt-get install --reinstall libnss3 libnss3:i386

  Users should then ensure they upgrade to version 20110912ubuntu2 or
  later of the ca-certificates-java package to prevent any further
  library deletions.

  Original description:
  I upgraded "ca-certificates" and "light-themes" and afer a reboot my wireless networking was gone. Turns out "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss3.so" wasn't there anymore. After restoring that file everything works fine again. Probably related to the other new bugs for this package?
