Could you strace (truss?) a simple main() that calls rand() to confirm?

Even better, Dtrace.

Regardless I am juggling a few things and will get right on this.

Thanks for investigating.

Also, when at this, could you please provide the value of DEV_RANDOM
in "include/arch/unix/apr_private.h" (i.e. /dev/random or
/dev/urandom) for your ./configure'd tests?

Well I was the one that specified this in configure and therefore it is
correct but for the sake of a trivial test I may do a quick spin with
this :


$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local \
> --enable-threads --enable-shared --enable-static \
> --enable-other-child --with-devrandom=/dev/urandom --enable-posix-shm

Merely a curiosity to see what happens here as we may be running in
circles looking for a clearly blocking source of entropy where the
well is dry.
