Is there a fork of Fortune that uses the PCG, Xoshiro or wyhash algorithm?

I am not fluent in C or Rust and time constrained, otherwise I would have taken a shot at it

Or better, with an entropy source like rdrand or rdseed?




Rdrand is not generally considered trustable, and the algorithm it uses is not known.

The main use for rdrand is to mix it with other entropy sources to produce a seed for another rng.
