PRNG not seeded => Seg.Fault

Hi there,
I think I may have discovered a minor but annoying bug in PostgreSQL.

PostgreSQL version 7.1.3
with openssl-0.9.6b
readline-4.2

Compiled under Solaris 8 with SPARCWorks compiler.

Started with command:

postmaster -D /export/pgsql/data -i -l

Attempting to connect via an SSL aware psql client machine that doesn't
have a PRNG seed causes the backend to generate a Segmentation Fault.

A little digging around found to culprit in

src/backend/postmaster/postmaster.c @ line 1115

the ERR_reason_error_string(ERR_get_error()) in the fprintf statement.

Remove it from the fprintf and all works fine.

Apart from that PostgreSQL is great!

Many thanks,

Steve
