Description: This program feeds the /dev/random device with entropy-data read
from an audio device. The audio-data is not copied as is but first 'de-biased'
and analysed to determine how much bits of entropy is in it. This program is
usefull for systems doing lots of cryptographic stuff like VPN endpoints or GPG
clients; it helps preventing that the /dev/random device gets depleted and
blocks reads.
