Change it then. The random(4) manpage on my system shows it being written to as root, and if this is a closed system you can probably allow another user to do that.
I guess so. I just didn't know that writing to it, supposed to do any difference. Stracing registry's startup shows that both are used, but I don't know who does those calls.
open("/dev/random", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/dev/random", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_NOCTTY) = 11
