Not really.  This is a problem with a specific implementation of a specific secure random number generator (android).
If addresses are never reused, it doesn't matter if individual private keys are compromised after the fact.
The point is that with a proper RNG reuse is safe.

With a bad RNG no address is safe because it leads to bad signatures AND bad private keys.
