I am not sure I understand what you are saying; currently rand_win.c
calles CryptGenRandom (CryptoAPI) and the INTEL_DEF_PROV to acquire input
to the entropy functions in OpenSSL.
/* poll the Pentium PRG with CryptoAPI */
if (acquire(hProvider, 0,
I am not sure I understand what you are saying
You called the intel h/w rng excellent. I believe consensus is we
don't know.
The code you showed does exactly the right thing: don't rely on the h/w
RNG directly, but use it as an entropy source.
