psql+openssl+uniware7

Hi all,

While testing postgresql with openssl on Unixware, I had this problem that
psql alaways replied "PRGN not seeded".

That because psql does'nt not seed it in anyway. That's all right on
systems that have /dev/urandom (or whatever is ok for openssl)

The hack is simple: install prngd then add -DEGD='"/var/run/prngd-pool"'
to
CFLAGS in src/makefiles/unixware'CFLAGS

then add 
#ifdef EDGRAND_egd(EGD);
#endif

if src/interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c near line  965 (#ifdef USE_SSL)

This done, openssl is doing all right.

I'm sorry I don't have a clue how to make a clean patch. I guess
real patch would involve configure testing for /dev/?random then all
"standard places" according to openssl for prng sockets then isse
eventually RAND_egd.

Thanks you for your attention.
