This technique would be assuming that it's a full-time backdoor. Some of the speculation has been that there are routines that are triggered only in certain special conditions. I don't actually subscribe to the "conspiracy theories" for the most part, including this one - really just making an academic point here. The whole backdoor theory, IMHO would have to rely on something in software to leverage the supposed backdoor. However, the "sabotaged RNG" idea noted below is more plausible.
