Random is working with a newer cvs version of hurd.

Hi,
        I just got random to work with a newer version of the cvs
hurd sources.  I am not sure on the actual age of the sources lol
but there no older then 2 weeks old. I compiled it doing the in 
source method (Not sure what to call it.) I made a hurd.obj dir
then configured hurd from there while having the random sources
inside the hurd source tree. The only thing that was a problem was 
there where previous declarations errors.  Marcus coded in the 
trivfs_S_* functions and there seem to be some in the trivfs_S_io.h 
header which gets included with trivfs.h.  I copied trivfs.h into my 
CWD and commented out the #include <trivfs_S_io.h> line and
changed #include <hurd/trifs.h> to #include "trivfs.h" and it compiled. 
Of course every now and then I had to move down a dir and compile a lib 
that random needed.  After that I installed ssh with out a problem.  Just 
thought I would let everyone know.  I am not sure if this is a good thing 
or not but sure makes ssh's install go alot eaiser.
