I see. Like Ludo and Mark, I think we should avoid doing tricky things with urandom. Could /dev/zero work here? Does it use urandom once, to get a seed, or does it read urandom repeatedly, expecting different values each time? Also, I wonder if Guix users would want reproducibility here instead of longer-lived NAND storage.
