  Modified files:
    lib/libc/stdlib      rand.3 rand.c 
  Log:
  Bring in a better seeding and random number generation algorithm from
  FreeBSD for the (old) rand() API.  Add sranddev() to the library and clean
  up the manual page.  Note that we are currently using /dev/urandom to
  generate the seed to avoid boot-time blocking issues.
