Jens Schweikhardt 9ce79b6c70 Be a nice community member and honor the request for backout after 
stirring the hornet's nest. This issue will be resolved by core.

Jens Schweikhardt 4e30e04c4d Move the Hitler quotes and some references to him to the "offensive" file. 
I did not bother to sort them all. If you have a script, feel free.

Jens Schweikhardt e818716b66 While I find the Hitler quotes extremely questionable, I'm enough 
of a pedant to properly spell the monster's first name.

Andrey A. Chernov f92c1adc15 My change, namely srandomdev() addition, was backed out even without 
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().

Greg Lehey 8af732d13c Use a random number to seed the random number generator. Goodby, Rush 
Limbaugh.

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.

John Baldwin 59c2bcbae9 Correct an error in the previous revision. RAND_MAX is the maximum value 
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.

displays all fortunes that have the same hash, and allows to
remove one of them.  The rest is written to stdout.
