We do call into openssl in postmaster, via RandomCancelKey().

I'm not at all sure it does, but I did see it listed in https://man.netbsd.org/ld.elf_so.1 LD_BIND_NOW If defined immediate binding of Procedure Link Table (PLT) entries is performed instead of the default lazy method. so I assumed it would do the same as on linux.
