Hi folks,

Latest CVS client (HEAD) on unix:
If you run it for the first time, either with or without install-local
before, you get first the entropy gathering procedure, then the nice
menu etc.
After you press Ok, you get the message:
"IIP has insufficient random data to start with. Rerun isproxy with the
-R switch on."
and it quits, no seed.rnd is saved.

Looks like the initial entropy is ignored somehow.
