verify option.

Here's a quick-and-dirty patch for shred (fileutils-4.1) so it can verify
data with the -V option, useful for checking hard disks and other media.

It also fixes a compile error when compiling for i386 (and no i686 or higher).

According to the man page, shred can shred stdout, but on FreeBSD 2.2.8 and
GNU/Linux (red hat 6.0) I get the following error:

address@hidden [/home/sean/fileutils-4.1] src/shred -
src/shred: -: invalid file type
