By any chance, could you comment on this release critical bug that
still affects haveged?
It did prevent haveged from entering Squeeze which is a little bit
annoying. I would very much like to see haveged at least be present in
squeeze-backports, but we need to have a working version in testing
before it could happen.
For what it worth, upstream has released two new versions in january,
and it looks like they can be built and used with gcc-4.4 and gcc-4.5
without having to fiddle with compiler options. Even on Sparc from my
tests on smeata.d.o and sperger.d.o.
