Author: eadler Date: Fri Oct 12 02:12:52 2012 New Revision: 241475 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/241475 Log: MFC r241373: Remove undefined behavior from sranddev() and srandomdev(). This doesn't actually work with any modern C compiler: In particular, both clang and modern gcc verisons silently elide any xor operation with 'junk'.
