I actually still have that in my local patch set, but a few years
later I realized that entropy-file on / would not work for people
with read-only / and securelevel 2, maybe that's why nobody ever
touched it.  Before KASLR it was probably not a big deal, but
that's probably different now.

Sorry I can't provide input towards your actual issue...
