STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

Would it be possible to document in os.urandom() documentation that the BCryptGenRandom() function is used on Windows with the "system-preferred random number generator algorithm"? (I don't think that we should mention the BCRYPT_USE_SYSTEM_PREFERRED_RNG constant.)
