[quote user="Ben L."]Did you look at the next line? It clobbers that value with a real crypto random source.[/quote] No it doesn't. It adds some random numbers after it, but it's still reduced entropy by using a Unix timestamp as a random value.

[quote user="Ben L."]What's the gaping security hole (on (nearly) each line) of, for example, this file?[/quote] 37 t := uint32(c.config.time().Unix()) 38 hello.random[0] = byte(t >> 24) 39 hello.random[1] = byte(t >> 16) 40 hello.random[2] = byte(t >> 8) 41 hello.random[3] = ...
