to remove part of seed -> 1st value correlation. Correlation still remains
because of algorithm limits. Note that old algorithm have even stronger
correlation, especially in the lower bits area, but not eye-visible, as
current one.

2147483647 after calculation, but this method not works since 2147483647
seed returns to 0 again on the next interation. Instead of after calculation
mapping, map 0 to another value _before_ calculation, so it never stucks.
initialize the context. This way, a failure to initialize the context is
not fatal unless we actually have work to do - because if we don't, we
return PAM_SUCCESS without even trying to initialize the context.
checks, including the "open directory" check or a MAC check fail,
after the working directory of the process has been changed, then
the cwd of the process will be left as the target directory rather
than the original directory.
At some point, this bug might be fixable by performing the directory
change only after permission is granted for the change. In the
mean time document it (it's been there for a while).

could end with a reply to old data.

It not affect existen programs because property_find() now returns NULL

get it from the fs structure. Really libufs should have interfaces to generate
both what we export, and what we import, based on eachother, and this should
be full of redundant code to make sure everything is right... But really, we
don't even deal with checksums, so plenty of room to improve.
a NULL filename argument allows a stream's mode to be changed. At the
moment it just recycles the old file descriptor instead of storing the
filename somewhere and using that to reopen the file, as the standard
seems to require. Strictly conforming C99 applications probably can't
tell the difference but POSIX ones can.
