discussing with me, and I obviously disagree seeing that afterwards
(srandomdev() back out not fix any thing, it can only mask the problem).
So, back out the back out and return srandomdev().
People who have problems with repeated quotes should use -D fortune
option for debugging to see is the problem in (1) /dev/random initialization
or in (2) fortune code itself.
I will be glad to help, but I can't reproduce repeated quote situation
on my machine.
In either case found, (1) or (2) should be fixed instead of removing
srandomdev().

This should have already worked properly if random(4) has been
initialized correctly, but it seems that this is frequently not the
case. Instead, use the microsecond part of the current time as the
seed.
for rand(3), not random(3). random(3) is defined to return values between
0 and 2^31-1, so add a local RANDOM_MAX constant to this file that is
defined as 2^31-1 and use that in place of RAND_MAX.

issues, and changed the default for the new -c option to be identical
to -w.

The former tip used `col -bx', which would not only discard
CR's, but also expand TAB's and remove BS'en. This effect is
not always wanted.

architecture independent. Besides the fixed-width types in
the header, the offsets are now stored as 64-bit off_t (also
in big endian format).

e.g., by trimming all non-alphabet characters and whitespace,
converting to lowercase, and considering only first (or last)
N letters (maybe only consonants). The fortune editor then
displays all fortunes that have the same hash, and allows to
remove one of them. The rest is written to stdout.
Due to one of the bugs (^C was the first character of each line
when sorting), the -b option of sort(1) didn't take any effect,
so stay bug-compatible, and remove the -b option.
