Erm, I am in between you and the Security-Officer on this one. The Block-till-reseeded idea was strongly supported by him. I am now in centre-stage, and I need a concensus here. I don't mind what it is (although I am firmly inclined towards security). The rc-hackage will become a non-issue once the random-device auto-reseeds at boot, and that is somewhat dependant on the current state on preemptive-ithreads (which are waiting in the wings IIUC).
