You were faster than me. I just thought about starting after lunch.
Unfortunately, your patch gives me a SIGBUS on HP-UX 10.20 at:
SOCK_AF_INET(addr).sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_LOOPBACK);
I'll see to unwrap the macro and try some debugging.
Best regards,

PS. There is a minor inconsistency in get get_random_bytes and seed_rng
(unsigned char <-> char).
