That is are several fast random polls. However I expected to see a few
other system calls.  Can you please grep through config.h and tell us
how

 HAVE_GETHRTIME
 HAVE_BROKEN_GETHRTIME
 HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY
 HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME
 HAVE_TIMES

are defined.  This is definitely not the hanging problem, though.

You can also try to run this:

GNUPG_RNDUNIX_DBG=/tmp/foo GNUPG_RNDUNIX_DBGALL=1 \
  ./gpg -a --gen-random 2 10

/tmp/foo will be filled with info regarding the tools execed by the
rndunix entropy gatherer.

Salam-Shalom,
