No (not that I'm aware of).

Yes:

# ls -la /dev/random
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 8 Oct 29 22:01 /dev/random

Do you need help?

Running it from outside the chroot:

# strace -f -p 31838
Process 31838 attached - interrupt to quit

read(4, "\212\304;\210\204n\361\26", 976) = 8
read(4, "\210\4\266\332\\\272\17\276", 968) = 8

lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Feb 14 16:12 4 -> /dev/random

I prepared a minimal chroot where you should be able to reproduce the problem on your own:

http://grml.org/tmp/ssl-cert-chroot.tgz (52M)

Running "apt-get install ssl-cert" inside it hopefully should allow you to reproduce above problem.
