The closing comment is required only for long conditionally defined
code sections, with the exception of lint cases.  Attempt to document
also the logic for using '!' before the SOMETIMESSOMETHGINGHERE.
The goal of these comments is to make complex cases more
comprehensible, not to require them in all cases.  The rules here are

One bug fixed:  Use getmicrouptime() to trigger reseeds so that we
cannot be tricked by a clock being stepped backwards.

Express parameters in natural units and with natural names.

Don't use struct timeval more than we need to.

Various stylistic and readability polishing.

Introduce arc4rand(void *ptr, u_int len, int reseed) function which
returns a stream of pseudo-random bytes, observing the automatic
reseed criteria as well as allowing forced reseeds.

Rewrite arc4random() in terms of arc4rand().

3b12885314 Add a paragraph which should clarify the separation of asterisks 
and adjacent tokens in declarations.
The added text was originally a single sentence I wrote and which
was heavily modified and extended by Bruce Evans.

This clarification attempt originates from differing usage of the
'restrict' type-qualifier.
Although various documents documents dicussing the C Programming
Language put a space between an asterisk and the 'restrict' keyword,
including the C99 standard (at least the n869.txt draft) and other
ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG14 documents, the IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 document
does not separate them.
