Then for this to work at better performance, I'm going to have to either 
directly modify the AVLFG struct state (probably not a good idea), or 
add a function to libavutil/lfg.c that allows "fast seeding" without the 
use of MD5 which could probably be something as simple as copy the 
32-bit seed 16 times through c->state[] with or without modification 
during the loop. Sound good?
