hmmm, Bytes::Random::Secure looks even better...

"Prior to version 0.20, a heavy dependency chain was required for reliably and
securely seeding the ISAAC generator. Earlier versions required
Crypt::Random::Source, which in turn required Any::Moose. 

Thanks to Dana Jacobsen's new Crypt::Random::Seed module, this situation has
been resolved. So if you're looking for a secure random bytes solution that
"just works" portably, and on Perl versions as far back as 5.6.0, you've come
to the right place."
