The use of the PURIFY macro in ssleay_rand_bytes() is sufficient to
resolve the Valgrind issue with random numbers. Undo the changes to
RAND_bytes() and RAND_pseudo_bytes() that are redundant in this
respect.
Update documentation and FAQ accordingly, as the PURIFY macro is
available at least since 0.9.7.
