Hi,

when saving the random state with RAND_write_file(file) and reloading with
RAND_load_file(file, max_bytes), the length of the random pool written to
"file" is not available as macro, so the max_bytes must be hard coded from
the documented value of "1k".
Proposal:
Add some macro like
#define RAND_POOL_LENGTH 1024
to rand.h.

Best regards,
        Lutz
