Well, *we* want that, but I don't think that OpenBSD is making an *awful* decision here. Even if you want deterministic, you're only deterministic on a single platform, so if you want to get a deterministicly random (such an odd phrase…) sequence, the best thing to do is to code up an Mersenne Twister or something and ignore the rand/srand functions. --Ben -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
