I am fixing my pine+ssl hack to seed the PRNG. My development
platform is FreeBSD, so I never noticed a problem, since it
has a /dev/random.

I plan on doing something like a 'ls /' and sending that into the
PRNG along with the time, pid, ppid, uid and any other metrics
I can get my hands on, but this seems like a job that (optionally,
of course) should be consolidated -- or do we want every
program to seed the PRNG a different way? :-)
