Using the configure script in 1.2.4 I see that the solaris builds don't 
include /dev/urandom support.
"configure" line 20974
    *-solaris* | *-irix* | *-dec-osf* | *-netbsd* )
        NAME_OF_DEV_RANDOM="/dev/random"
        NAME_OF_DEV_URANDOM="/dev/random"
#       DYNLINK_MOD_CFLAGS="-shared $CFLAGS_PIC"

Solaris has included /dev/urandom for a while now. Can a simple test be 
included to test for /dev/urandom and, if present, use it?
