Please don't backport this "feature". We had to wait 20 years before someone
requested the feature, but only a few months before the first user reported an
issue ("regression"?).
IMO it would be much better to use explicitly a random.SystemRandom instance
which would keep the fd open, and only use it if you hit the bug (*many*
threads calling os.urandom in parallel.
