I've just done a bit of research and the good news is that it appears 
that dolphin-emu has moved away from using havege since releasing 4.0.2 
(See 
https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/commits/master/CMakeTests/FindPolarSSL.cmake). 
  The bad news is that the changes require a newer version of polarssl 
(1.3) than what is in the stable Fedora repositories.

I would suggest bundling polarssl if you update dolphin-emu in F19 or 
F20, and then unbundle for F21 by backporting the commits above.
