Description
I was having problems adding RSA keys to the openssh ssh-agent. This is partly discussed in #63405 . ssh-agent was crashing every time I added an RSA key.
After some debugging I found the problem may be in libcrypto.3.dylib from openssl.
I searched the commits in openssl repo and found
commit: 24cdb1bfecbd765e829b9932a5a60ff63a7dff4b

MacOS prior to 10.12 does not support random API correctly
Fixes 16517
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/16517
and https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/16591
I checked out the commit in my local git repo and copied the file include/crypto/rand.h mentioned in the commit to my port work directory and rebuilt and installed openssl3
Adding an RSA key to ssh-agent now worked.
