FYI: Sol8 + /dev/urandom + OpenSSH/SSL

As it turns out, you don't need to configure OpenSSL 0.9.6c in any special
way to have support for /dev/urandom - it automatically tries to use it if
it exists on a Unix system.  So, I compiled the current snapshot using
"--with-rand-helper=no" and everything appears to build and work fine on
Solaris 8.
