These days OpenSSL is able to determine which random source it

This is definitely used by the Postfix tlsmgr process
How'd you determine that?
Easy. I read the documentation and the source code. :)
and it is specifically set on all Linux builds I do to be dev:/dev/
urandom.
And who set it? There is no such setting on my FreeBSD systems.
It gets set automatically when building Postfix if it is a known platform
that supports those devices and TLS is enabled. It's fairly quick to
discern if you read the code.
