** Why not just use a library random generator like lrand48() for this?
** Because the OP_NewRowid opcode in the VDBE depends on having a very
** good source of random numbers. The lrand48() library function may
** well be good enough. But maybe not. Or maybe lrand48() has some
** subtle problems on some systems that could cause problems. It is hard
** to know. To minimize the risk of problems due to bad lrand48()
** implementations, SQLite uses this random number generator based
** on RC4, which we know works very well.
**
** (Later): Actually, OP_NewRowid does not depend on a good source of
** randomness any more. But we will leave this code in all the same.
