A recent change in cpython broke autobind of abstract unix socket in linux, causing bind calls with an empty string to be bound to '\0' instead of a random address (expected). This results in an 'address already in use' error when consecutive empty string binding is used. While we wait for this issue to be solved, we need to enforce a random address to be used for empty strings in the abstract space.
