In Coreutils lib/ directory I found rand-isaac.c, which uses getpid() for entropy, which is used by randread.c, which is used by sort(1) and shred(1).
rand-isaac is based on rc4. I briefly checked into how it's used for shred(1). shred(1) will try to use /dev/urandom first, and drop to rand-isaac after. This looks like another good place to use /dev/erandom and arc4random(3). robert
