attached is a simple program to reproduce,
and workaround the issue.
libgcrypt standard behaviour is, at least on linux,
to open /dev/urandom once,
save that file descriptor in some static variable,
and re-use it wherever appropriate.
and never ever close that file descriptor,
but on exit or fork.
Thanks Simon,

Reassigning to libgnutls, the probable culprit package.
The common factor between libgnutls and libssl 2 would be the use of the
same crypt function AFAICS, so I actually wonder if this is down to
libc6 :s.
Would maintainer of ssl/gnutls confirm that it is the source of the
issue?
