Thanks, but we are trying to move the responsability for randomness collection
further away from OpenSSH, rather than closer in. It just doesn't make sense for
each app to do its own entropy collection.

I'd prefer to deprecate ssh-rand-helper entirely and give all the responability
to OpenSSL, but that is a matter for another release :)
