The code that itojun has just dumped into several different source files does attempt to do this (but I think can be broken with a small number of values from the sequence). OTOH what is actually needed is some generic library code that can generate different types of 'random' numbers depending on what it is asked to do. Eg - repeateable sequences with reasonable statistical randomness - sequences where values are guaranteed not to be reproduced - random values The actual algorithms being absent from the ABI, they might even be kernel options.
