Thanks!

It might make sense to seed based on SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
(https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/) if set, and
later on we ought to add an option to set the seed on the command
line.

But, there are a lot of other reproducible build tasks that are
probably more important to tackle before this.
