John,
Steering away from the code, I am getting more thoughts.

You did not start by hashing the algorithm identifier, which makes
more sense in the light that RSA won't be around forever.
It's not a major thing though -- as CKA_ID is not a security thing.
I wonder if there is a reason not simply to adhere to the ASN.1 encoding
and hashing that. It may offer better integration with existing tools.
