You can have RFC vote options like

 - Raise Error/Exception when CSPRNG is not available
  (Choice: Yes/No)
 - Use error(E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR) or exception(Whatever exception prefered)
  (Choice: Error/Exception)

BTW, I prefer exception, but consistency is important also.
My vote will be Yes and Error.

Regards,
