Many crypto algorithms depend on good random numbers. Even if generating a key using a poor RNG is not a problem, some protocols create nonces which must be randomly selected or the security of the algorithm is greatly compromised.

I'm not totally sure as to which algorithms fit this definition but some suggestions might be DSA/ECDSA, Diffie-Hellman, SRP, etc.
