I have reason to believe, that for my intended use, it will do fine. Could
you, or somebody else who is familiar with that part of the source, tell me
where I should add a new RAND_METHOD section (md_rand.c?) or should I just
add a new file.

If more people agree with you, once I have a working piece of code (which
may under perform), then obviously nobody will be interested in a patch.
Until then, I would appreciate your help in finding my way around the
source.

Kind regards,,
Leif Kremkow
