/dev/random does not block, emits poor entropy

For contrast, here is a 'rngtest' run against a 3.1.8 Linux kernel with /dev/random enhanced by the output of a STMicroelectronics ST33 TPM PRNG (via 'rngd' v4). bits received from input: 62380032 FIPS 140-2 successes: 3115 FIPS 140-2 failures: 4 FIPS 140-2(2001-10-10) Monobit: 0 FIPS 140-2(2001-1
