30836 looks like a random number to me ;) Do you have an app that depends
on unpredictable random numbers?

No I don't, but it seems that having a single same random number, all the time
is pretty useless and may cause some difficult to spot bugs.

It shouldn't be that hard to tie this into /dev/random

I'm getting 12616. Hmm. Wiping ~/.wine makes no difference, so I'm not sure
where it's getting it's data from.

cmd was missing a call to srand() at startup.  I'll send a patch.  Thanks for
reporting it!
