But who need any of the values to be pseudo-random? Intserv would work just
fine if the flow label values would be taken out of the sequence 1,2,3,4,...
Intserv signaling should provide for no problem of re-use after reboot
either, since after a reboot the signaling would be done again before any
use of the flow label.
