Those were the only issues when I tried building it on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD[0] (and probably the same on Hurd) which are good examples of non-Linux platforms. We still have /dev/urandom, so we may be able to use getentropy_linux if only the Linux-specific includes and the sysctl were all #ifdef __linux__ We also have the option of using the FreeBSD kernel's sysctl, but suggesting a getentropy_freebsd.c would seem silly when FreeBSD itself doesn't need one... An alternative for other platforms is to link with libbsd[1], so that arc4random is available and getentropy need not be compiled, although beware the arc4random implementation in libbsd 0.6.0 is outdated and not currently very safe to use for this[2].
