tag 491270 patch
thanks
It looks to me like the while loop is supposed to try reading from
/dev/urandom and /dev/random, stopping once it succeeds, but the code
to increment the iterator is missing, so it keeps trying /dev/urandom
over and over again.
The attached patch increments the iterator (i.e., device) each time
through the loop, which should fix this problem, but I've only tested
that it compiles.
