    libstdc++: Make spurious std::random_device FAIL less likely
    
    It's possible that independent reads from /dev/random and /dev/urandom
    could produce the same value by chance. Retry if that happens. The
    chances of it happening twice are miniscule.
    
    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
    
            * testsuite/26_numerics/random/random_device/cons/token.cc:
            Retry if random devices produce the same value.
