      There is no synchronization in the call stack from reseed -> engineReseed -> reseedAlgorithm (-> hashReseedInternal), and the tail method is updating internal state. Somewhere along this stack a synchronized keyword should be added.

      Also, the comment in AbstractDrbg on synchronization is about a previous design and obsolete now. It should be updated as well.
