The module Math::TrulyRandom is not working in FreeBSD 5.2.1.  I =
installed perl 5.6.1 via ports, and installed Math::TrulyRandom via =
CPAN.

"make test" hangs forever.

A solution is to add the statement:
	return 0;
as the last line of the function tick() in the file truerand.c.

I can only guess that GCC is having issues?

GENERIC 5.2.1 kernel, stock perl 5.6.1 and stock gcc 3.3.3.
