[Qt-interest] Problems with QSslSocket hanging

[Thomas Dähling]

Scott,

this is probably not helping a lot, but if I read the bug report
comments correctly then they did not fix the underlying issue but just
create a "maximum delay" workaround that would abort the entropy
generation if it takes longer than that, and even then it still scales
with the number of allocations as this is still called at least once.
