sample implementation

I made a proof-of-concept implementation of the newer MS-Office method in C.

Getting it right in C involved some subtle math tricks due to differences with
FORTRAN but it looks like it is well behaved.

To try it just
cc -o newrand newrand.c
./newrand

FWIW, the standard rand() function in FreeBSD is not good at all, the results
are much better with random(). Still even when using rand() the results from
this algorithm look good.
