52  * Implement rand(3), the standard C PRNG API, using the non-standard but
53  * higher quality random(3) implementation and the same size 128-byte state
54  * LFSR as the random(3) default.
55  *
56  * It turns out there are portable applications that want a PRNG but are too
57  * lazy to use better-but-nonstandard interfaces like random(3), when
58  * available, and too lazy to import higher-quality and faster PRNGs into their
59  * codebase (such as any of SFC, JSF, 128-bit LCGs, PCG, or Splitmix64).
60  *
61  * Since we're stuck with rand(3) due to the C standard, we can at least have
62  * it produce a relatively good PRNG sequence using our existing random(3)
63  * LFSR.  The random(3) design is not particularly fast nor compact, but it has
64  * the advantage of being the one already in the tree.
