+   implements it with the getrandom() syscall which can fail with ENOSYS,
+   and this error is not supported in py_getentropy() and getrandom() is called
+   with flags=0 which blocks until system urandom is initialized, which is not
+   the desired behaviour to seed the Python hash secret nor for os.urandom():
+   see the PEP 524 which was only implemented in Python 3.6. */
