Two things. symmetricCapabilities was the "old" name, and
"SMIMECapabilities" is the new name. There is no symmetricCapabilities
any more, and it was used in an old S/MIME draft.
Second thing -- you said "PKCS #9 OID (1 2 840 113549 1 9) is assigned
to both...". You gave the actual PKCS #9 OID, but did you mean 1 2 840
113549 1 9 *15* which is SMIMECapabilities (which happens to live under
PKCS #9)?
As an aside -- I believe I have seen two sha-1WithRSAEncryption OIDs --
one under the oiw arc, and one under the PKCS #1 arc. Anyone know about
the oiw one? The PKCS #1 version is the one listed in the S/MIME spec.
