[dev] rand() error in pear/Crypt/HCEMD5.php:96

[Apis Hytt]

	Thoughts on possible range error problem:

	o As rand() is using int, we collide with underlying op-sys
		limit for rand legal range 

	For example in Solaris stdlib.h there is defined:
RAND_MAX .. which is 2**32  which is much less than 1000000,
of course .. so we get the Invalid warning range error.

	Tried 1,32767 and that was accepted as valid range .. but
that may disrupt unique enough values.
