Posix dictates rand() versus bsd random() function, and dietlibc

happy.
fwiw... lots of rand()s tend to suck... and RAND_MAX may not be large
enough for this use. glibc rand() is the same as random(). do you know
the fact that glibc rand() is the same implementation as random() was one of the
reason i believe we could switch to rand()
if dietlibc's rand() is good enough?
dietlibc rand() and random() are the same function.
but random will throw a warning saying it is deprecated.
