No prob. I was trying to catch up with my starred/flagged apitrace emails
when I came across this. It was easier than I thought -- initially I
somehow thought that rand() and random() had different interfaces, and
would require fiddling with the function that used them, but rand/random
have precisely the same interface (0..RAND_MAX), so it was actually trivial.
