I guess it follows that it is not a good idea to generate keys or
certificates on -CURRENT for a while (until entropy comes back to town)?
I don't know which applications depend on /dev/random providing entropy
and which gather their own.
If so, I think this needs an UPDATING entry, particularly since the
symptoms could outlive the cause. i.e. something to the effect of
``Keys and certificates generated on -CURRENT on or after m/d/y should
not be used'' and updated again when the entropy is again available.
