well, actually /dev/random was the worst example I could
possibly find (as this is one of the devices provided for
vservers in any case ;) but usually a vservers /dev is
limited to the following:
full  hdv1  null  ptmx  pts/  random  tty  urandom  zero
which is sufficient to operate (in almost all cases)
but secure for the host and other vservers ...

sorry again for that bad example ...

hmm, glibc has a _lot_ of other small libraries built
around it, maybe there is a 'version mismatch' or some
old library somewhere ...
