<b>AL_RAND</b><br>
Optional replacement for libc's rand() function.  On many architectures
the libc rand() does not produce suitably random numbers; this macro
fixes the problem by removing the non-random bits and replacing them
with random bits from another call to rand().

... might be better.  Eric's right; the original is grammatically
incorrect.
