Depending on how you are attacking this, it was already done or should be
done differently.

A GNU Mach char glue code was added by Okuji Yoshinori, with a few bug fixes
by me. YOu can get it from alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/marcus/ (actually in a
subdirectory of it, I forgot the name of the subdir). You also need
streamdev by Okuji.

But it would also be interesting to implement /dev/random as a user space
server. Some user space random generator could be written as translator.

Thanks,
Marcus
