They are working exactly as well as they did before. What is
different is that NetBSD is no longer lying to you about

I'll let Taylor explain that in more details (my own memorized management
summary: they used to lie and now don't - but
On another machine with working random number generator (nearly all modernish
amd64 machines have that) do:
dd if=/dev/random of=/tmp/file bs=32 count=1
then scp the file over and dd it into /dev/random:
dd if=/tmp/file of=/dev/random bs=32 count=1
This will be preserved

No random number generator and you did not seed the machine.

Hello,
I just got what looks like a /dev/random issue on HEAD.
A python process, part of the glib2 build, hangs on entropy.
I have enabled all the possible sources but rndctl show '0'
for everything:
Source Bits Type Flags
/dev/random 0 ??? estimate, collect, v
10 matches
