We do not have KRNG11i installed. It did not ship with the original
installation of HP-UX 11.11. It needs to be loaded after-the-fact and we cannot
be ensured that our customers will have this module installed nor do we wish to
make it a requirement

We're running Tru64 UNIX 5.1A, not 5.1B which definitely doesn't have
/dev/urandom.

Hi Antoine,
Thanks for the heads up.
I've attached a revised patch that doesn't misuse

The Written Word added the comment:
The root of the problem preventing me from running some 3rd party setup.py
scripts correctly is the mismatch between (recently) raising an OSError in
Python/random.c, but catching only NotImplementedError in Lib/random.py.
For backwards compatibility
The Written Word added the comment:
Actually, this regression appeared after the Hash Randomization patches prior
to 2.6.8, 2.7.3, 3.1.4 and 3.2.3.
Also, it not only breaks `from os import urandom`, but also prevents
installation of many third-party packages that use setuptools or distribute
