The random number generator on solaris is (according to the make check) not
strong, does this imply that I should not create a key, or also that I can not

DON'T USE ANY DATA GENERATED BY THIS PROGRAM!!

The random number generator is only a kludge to let
it run - it is in no way a strong RNG! 



Thanx.
