I've dug into things some more.
In my mac environment, sys/random.h is pretty empty and doesn't actually seem
to provide anything that Python/random.c uses. The compile error is a type
error is because 'u_int' never gets typedef'd in the rest of the compile
includes.
I think the bottom line is that sys/random.h on mac os is neither useful, nor
required.
Below is the error again and I've attached my sys/random.h
```
In file included from Python/random.c:16:
/usr/include/sys/random.h:37:32: error: unknown type name 'u_int'
void read_random(void* buffer, u_int numBytes);
^
/usr/include/sys/random.h:38:33: error: unknown type name 'u_int'
void read_frandom(void* buffer, u_int numBytes);
^
/usr/include/sys/random.h:39:33: error: unknown type name 'u_int'
int write_random(void* buffer, u_int numBytes);
```
