Technically that is what it does, except for setting the USE_*RANDOM variables
for non-OpenSSL builds. We could skip that too, which I think is what you're
proposing, but it seems to me that we'll end up with another set of entangled
logic in pg_strong_random if we do since there then needs to be precedence in
checking (one might be on Windows with OpenSSL for example, where OpenSSL >
Windows API).

Fixed.
