They are:

[13:27] [asmodai@purgatory] (18) {0} $ grep random /usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV
        mknod random    c 2 3;                  chmod 644 random
	mknod urandom   c 2 4;                  chmod 644 urandom

I am seriously suspecting something local must be wrong on your box.

Everything works as advertised here.
