Nick Coghlan added the comment:

It may be that the right fix is to build with more recent Linux header files, 
even when running the build on an older kernel, in which case the request would 
be to have a way to indicate that missing those particular headers should fail 
the build, rather than implicitly omitting os.getrandom().

Worst case, yeah, we'll have to patch Fedora's system Python to hardcode the 
necessary constants in order to cope with the way Koji's buildroots are 
currently set up. I hope it doesn't come to that, though.

I'll leave the specifics to Petr, but it would definitely be preferable to have 
a common way of solving this recommended by upstream rather than everyone 
affected needing to figure out how to solve the problem on their own.
