Description:
------------
If you call mcrypt_create_iv with either the MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM or
MCRYPT_DEV_URANDOM constants, and it cannot generate enough data, it issues an
E_ERROR fatal error. However, on linux when the same situation it will just
issue
an E_WARNING.
I suggest that it should be changed from an E_ERROR to an E_WARNING on Windows
(as
it certainly is recoverable).
