I'd guess you need the randomness in any case. Should I just add extra code to feed OpenSSL's PRNG from specified file (device/socket/etc)?
Looks like that. Other projects which support egd have extra code for the RAND_*egd* functions.
OpenSSL automatically queries EGD when entropy is requested via
RAND_bytes() or the status is checked via RAND_status() for the first
time, if the socket is located at /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool or
/etc/egd-pool.
You don't have it in any of those?
