This worked!  Thank you.  I am not sure why the system one is failing
but it does seem to be the case.  In any case, I now have a working
Emacs built from src with gnus, org, twittering, etc.

It would be nice to have the option to control the use of getrandom from
the configure script to avoid having to change the generated config
files afterwards.

Thanks again,
eric
