That's the thing, we don't actually know how involved the PIN is in relation to the key... it might be completely separate (and hence bypassable).
Similarly I also wonder if password-based pre-boot auth is affected.

Not saying you're wrong, I'm just not sure how well known it really is.
Either way... if the TPM is the one gating the key behind a PIN, I really don't see how an OS-level exploit can work without knowing the PIN in advance.
