in reply to Truly randomized keys() in perl 5.17 - a challenge for testing?

The problem with this new key randomisation code is not the non-determinacy it introduces -- that was already there a long time since; albeit in a lesser form.

The problem is that is a pointless prophylactic that doesn't even come close to solving the "problem" that was used to justify its addition to the code-base.
