The PRNG "stretcher" used by a RNG does not affect the length to which a seed can be stretched. What makes the BSD RNG "infinitely" stretchable is that BSD doesn't indulge in the dubious practice of entropy estimation; BSD's entropy pool is not depleted after seeding. Linux assigns an arbitrary numerical value to the entropy that is added to it's pool, and depletes that value whenever /dev/[x]random is read. undo
