It seems like reading the stdout of one of the programs (the first?)
fails. I have no idea what "Resource temporarily unavailable" would
mean in this context. Before reading, the code has called poll, and
at least one of POLLIN and POLLHUP was set.

That's a consequence of the entropy collector's failure earlier (the
background poll is actually a separate child process; it writes an
entropy estimate and a hash of the collected data to its stdout when
finished).

No, it doesn't depend on the keys.
