Further analysis:

* uuid1() uses random.randrange() if the system doesn't provide uuid_generate_time

* uuid1() also falls back to random.randrange() in getnode()'s _random_getnode() if no hardware address can be acquired.

* uuid4() is fine as it only falls back to random.randrange() when os.urandom() fails.
