PPS - if I were to draw what I understand "structure-new" to actually
be, I would change structure-yes as follows:

 1. swap "CSPRNG" and "randomness pool" so the former now comes after
    the latter.

 2. connect CSPRNG (now below the pool) to /dev/urandom with the line


I have not read the code, and do not understand the change that's
happened properly though.

Good luck,
