I had a short chat with Guido yesterday. I'll try to sum up the conversation. 
Guido, please correct me if I got something wrong or missed a point.

Guido wants the fix as simple and less intrusive as possible as he wants to 
provide/apply a patch for Python 2.4 to 3.3. This means any new stuff is off 
the table unless it's really, really necessary. Say goodbye to my experimental 
MurmurHash3 patch.

We haven't agreed whether the randomization should be enabled by default or 
disabled by default. IMHO it should be disabled for all releases except for the 
upcoming 3.3 release. The env var PYTHONRANDOMHASH=1 would enable the 
randomization. It's simple to set the env var in e.g. Apache for mod_python and 
mod_wsgi.
