Yeah, that rather kills the "maybe it's getrandom"
theory. The error message from lighttpd tells us that
the openssl function RAND_status() has returned an error.
If you wanted you could attach a debugger to the QEMU
debugstub and then work through the guest code to
see why it fails in the 2.6.0 case and works for 3.1.1.1.
