What "external" crypto can you not fix? Windows? Then don't use
Windows. You can fix any crypto in Linux or FreeBSD.
No you cannot.
So what? BSD's definition is superior. Linux should fix their RNG. Or
these people who you think should implement their own should. Or they
could just switch to BSD.
That it does not, implicitly admits that you, Ben Laurie, cannot fix linux.
We want that all implementations of /dev/random and /dev/urandom behave
the same, and that they behave correctly on all machines. We don't have
that.
Hence the need for each implementer to reinvent the wheel.
