 Replying to [ticket:8031 cypherpunks]:
 > It was running in a chroot and I must have forgotten to give it read
 permission for the chrooted /dev/{u,}random.

 It's more likely in this case that your Tor didn't have any available file
 descriptors, and it wanted to use a file descriptor to open your
 /dev/random.
