Yes, I know but I still can't figure out - with a function call or a define or
a constant from some .h files - how much data the PRNG needs (at least) to be
happy :-)... maybe in the future the PRNG needs 256 bits or whatever... in the
moment I check with RAND_status() if the PRNG needs more data, if not I call
RAND_seed() again... and so on...
Bye,
Juergen
