Be careful.  When was the last time you checked the GnuPG code?  And
when was the last time you checked the options your distro maintainer
used to build your GnuPG?  :)

GnuPG doesn't have one RNG.  It has *many* RNGs.  Some of them are
really just thin wrappers over lower-level OS facilities.  And if you
don't trust /dev/urandom, I'd suggest using a different operating
system, because that's a game-over compromise.  It's like not trusting
CryptGenRand on Win32.
