Use internal seeding procedure

(In reply to Andrey Chernov from comment #3)

It is tempting to just use arc4random()) and ignore the seed. The main function
of ndis is to mimic MS-Windows though so for bare compatibility it seems better
to just wrap things around random() and srandom() respecting the internal
seeding procedures.
