Here's a list of all the hints I've got for my problem.
It will take a while to work through all this material. Thanks anyway
to all who mailed me.

You should be ok with 5% Pd/C but you will need to have some acid
present to protonate your amine as it forms or it may well react with
unreduced CN.

I don't know if this is useful to you, but it might be worth
consideration for your particular application.

I don't know what temperature and pressures were used. However, on his
website, Xiao-Yuan Li describes this process as "bio-mimetic" which
presumably means low temps and pressures.
Hope this helps,

Maybe you will find the solution in this book: "Catalytic
hydrogenation" by AUGUSTINE.
