No, as long as the font-specific random number is involved only the exactly
same system and its
relatives can replay it exactly.

Yes. The problem with fixing it is that the error is so old and got into binary
files. Currently this part of
metafiles cannot be replayed reliably.

That's probably the best solution: It will improve the cross-system
compatibility and not make things
worse from a backwards compatibility aspect.
