Are you setting LD_PRELOAD to libeatmydata.so?  I am.  This is
definitely related to the problem for me.  Is it for you too?

  $ env -i gnutls-cli
  No hostname specified

  $ env -i LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libeatmydata/libeatmydata.so gnutls-cli
  Error in GnuTLS initialization: Failed to acquire random data.
  No hostname specified

  $ unset LD_PRELOAD ; gnutls-cli
  No hostname specified
