Description Zvi Har'El 2006-09-28 18:49:31 AEST 
On Solaris 8, which doesn't support /dev/random, entropy.c doesn't compile. It has a missing signal.h include file.

Sigh.  Thanks for the report.

It seems this doesn't happen when the host has either the /dev/random patch or prngd (which my test boxes do), even if you configure --with-rand-helper.

Patch applied, thanks.  It will be in the next release.
