The random number generator in OpenSSL 1.1.1 was redesigned to provide fork safety by default, thus removing the need for calling RAND_poll after forking to ensure that two processes cannot share the same state. Since we now support 1.1.0 as the minumum version, and 1.1.0 is being increasingly phased out from production use, only perform the RAND_poll initialization for installations running 1.1.0 by checking the OpenSSL version number. LibreSSL changed random number generator when forking OpenSSL and has provided fork safety since version 2.0.2. This removes the overhead of initializing the RNG for strong random for the vast majority of users for whom it is no longer required.
