I found my error. It was not the usage of GCRYCTL_USE_SECURE_RNDPOOL + 
GCRYCTL_INIT_SECMEM, but that I load gcrypt twice using dlopen(), and that I 
do initialize it twice. But at the second dlopen() call, i just get the same 
reference to the first dlopen() and so the library is already open. I was my 
fault :-p
