I dunno about that. It compiles on Solaris 2.6 but when I run it, it
dies with:

	Couldn't open random pool "/tmp/random": 
	Operation not supported on transport endpoint

when it tries to open the EGD socket. 

I get a similar error on Digital Unix 4.0D:

	Couldn't open random pool "/tmp/random": 
	Operation not supported on socket

Anyone have any clues for me?
