For that we'd need some external entropy, not depending on a Mersenne Twister, blah, blah, blah. However, for most practical uses of this library for which it was created and intended, such as generating random names and addresses for automated tests, our random is good enough. But it should probably NOT be used for any cryptographic applications requiring true-random.
