Support for the RdRand instruction was added to i386 and amd64 a year ago
(see http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=134808609318790&w=2 ), but recent
events have called its trustworthiness into question:

Do these concerns currently affect OpenBSD? Is RdRand actually used by
default by the base system?
