fwiw, the test suite shouldn't be bleeding the system of entropy anyway;
i thought i'd enabled --quick-random for gpg in the tests, and the
openssh/openssl business should be reading from /dev/urandom anyway.

i'll look further into the tests when i have a chance to see if i can
find where it's reading from /dev/random.

thanks to everyone for the attention to this.
