45  * As of late 2014, here's how we plan to provide cryptographic-quality
46  * random numbers:
47  *
48  * - If we are building with OpenSSL, use RAND_poll() and RAND_bytes().
49  * - Otherwise, use arc4random().
50  *
51  * Use of arc4random() can be forced using configure --disable-openssl-random
52  *
53  * We can count on arc4random existing, thru the OS or thru libevent.
54  * The quality of arc4random depends on the implementor.
55  *
56  * RAND_poll() doesn't show up until XXX.  If it's not present, we
57  * need to either provide our own or use arc4random().
