Question about md_open() and random

[haypo at inl.fr]

Hi,

I don't understand why a message digest function need to call
"_gcry_fast_random_poll()" !? I noticed a FIXME:

      /* FIXME: should we really do that? - yes [-wk] */

Does it mean that the man "-wk" answered yes? Yes, but why yes? :-)

On my mind, compute a MD5 or SHA1 don't need any random bit.
