Yes, but just hashing the output from a DRBG is not the approved way to 
do it. Instead you are supposed to spawn a secondary DRBG with a seed 
generated from a primary DRBG. Just hashing wouldn't do much good, if 
you are really concerned that the DRBG output might reveal anything 
about the internal state.
