commit 242fcd695db6225ef98c5ad084e6f15ec5953158
Author: Andy Polyakov <appro at openssl.org>

    rand/randfile.c: permit non-regular files in RAND_load_file.
    
    Apparently applications rely on RAND_load_file's ability to work with
    non-regular files, customarily with /dev/urandom, so that the ban was
    not exactly appropriate.

-=head1 HISTORY
-
-A comment in the source since at least OpenSSL 1.0.2 said that
-RAND_load_file() and RAND_write_file() were only intended for regular files,
-and not really device special files such as C</dev/random>.  This was
-poorly enforced before OpenSSL 1.1.1.
