* Add hooks to override native arc4random_buf on FreeBSD.bcook2014-11-031-0/+85
The FreeBSD-native arc4random_buf implementation falls back to weak sources of entropy if the sysctl fails. Remove these dangerous fallbacks by overriding locally. Unfortunately, pthread_atfork() is also broken on FreeBSD (at least 9 and 10) if a program does not link to -lthr. Callbacks registered with pthread_atfork() simply fail silently. So, it is not always possible to detect a PID wraparound. I wish we could do better. This improves arc4random_buf's safety compared to the native FreeBSD implementation. Tested on FreeBSD 9 and 10.
