Depends in what trust do you have over your hardware/OS. If you assume the hardware is potentially backdoored, and the OS is proprietary, or even if open could have malware/rootkits that can thinker around the random number generator, the solution of using a sole implementation inside the program (assuming the sha256 function is inside the program itself) maybe better.
Sure an infected system may as well fake time values, but that is much more difficult and it's possible to detect from a userspace program. For example you mention to use getentroy, but on a compromised system you know how easy it is to change something that is implemented in a system library (e.g. libc) or even if you read /dev/random directly without passing from the libc how easy it's to make it read whatever you want?
To me that is not that bad implementation, in fact it's an implementation that is used in a lot of security software (including GPG, not as the sole source of course but as one of many).
