Really, most important is to exclude comma from the list of allowed
characters. And this prevents us from using a range.

I'd do something like:

char prinables="0123456789ABCDE...xyz!@#*&+";
unsigned int r;

for (i=0;i<SCRAM_NONCE_SIZE;i++) {
     pg_strong_random(&r,sizeof(unsigned int))
     nonce[i]=printables[r%(sizeof(prinables)-1)]
     /* -1 is here to exclude terminating zero byte*/
}
