--- Comment #1 from Xin LI <delphij@FreeBSD.org> ---
Analysis: In https://reviews.freebsd.org/D14500 I have suggested using ENOSYS
to test the existence of the new entropy system call.  This will not work
unless application already handles SIGSYS.

The solution is to check osreldate instead, I'll create a review soon.
