--- Comment #3 from Paolo Carlini <paolo.carlini at oracle dot com> ---
I'm going to attach a patchlet which does the trick (fread -> read) for me.
Note I'm on purpose disabling the use of __builtin_ia32_rdrand32_step on my
x86_64 machine, the undef would not be in the committed patch of course.

It would be great if you could test the change on your machines (in 4.7.x just
change random.h, no need to rebuild) and confirm that everything is fine.
