How about just making this plan A?

Maybe I'm naïve, but that would just require that
- qtwebsockets link against openssl directly (see e.g. qtbase/src/network/ssl/ssl.pri)
- Use the API described in http://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Random_Numbers
   to generate the random number.

I also don't think you even need the 'no-openssl available' use case.
