Thanks Victor. Python-3.5 has received your patches in time and 3.5.4 builds 
well with glibc-2.25 and <linux-3.17.  Python-3.4 and 2.7 do not.

I am backing Gentoo Prefix[1] for normal users to run Gentoo on top of other 
Linux distributions. The host distribution could be RHEL 5, 6, Ubuntu LTS 
14.04, etc, which is still common and with old linux kernels.  Gentoo unstable 
has been upgraded to glibc-2.25, and Gentoo is using Python-3.4 as default.  
Therefore glibc-2.25 + <linux-3.17 + Python-3.4 is a common scenario for us, at 
least in the near future.

I have made a workaround[2] by exporting ac_cv_func_getentropy=no 
unconditionally for the moment.
