Hi Randolph,

Thanks for trying to fix this. However, it looks like this is causing
another intermittent issue.

We got the following error on the autobuilder:

I only saw it on libjitterentropy so far. I quickly tried to reproduce
locally, without any success. Yet I confirm dropping this patch solve
the issue.

Can you have a look?

Thanks,
Mathieu
