+ * second edition, which describes a stream cipher allegedly
+ * compatible with RSA Labs "RC4" cipher (the actual description of
+ * which is a trade secret).  The same algorithm is used as a stream

+ * regenerate the same random sequence twice, so this can't be used
+ * for encryption, but will generate good random numbers.
