What would be more useful than discussing the quality of the pseudo random
numbers generator is measuring the quality of the fixed seed for the
Zobrist hashing. It is set in init_gnugo() in engine/interface.c.

Testing the quality of the seed should probably done by computing the
shortest combinations of hash values that yield zero when XOR'd.
