Originally packaged for wip by evaldo - thanks!

        ent is a program which applies various tests to sequences of
        bytes stored in files and reports the results of those tests.
        The program is useful for those evaluating pseudorandom number
        generators for encryption and statistical sampling
        applications, compression algorithms, and other applications
        where the information density of a file is of interest.

(Modified by me only to hold the distfile in a DIST_SUBDIR, since
the random.zip filename has the possibility to clash with other things)

An example of its usage:

        % dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1k count=10 | ent
        10+0 records in
        10+0 records out
        10240 bytes transferred in 0.001 secs (10240000 bytes/sec)
        Entropy = 7.977398 bits per byte.

        Optimum compression would reduce the size
        of this 10240 byte file by 0 percent.

        Chi square distribution for 10240 samples is 321.50, and randomly
        would exceed this value 0.30 percent of the times.

        Arithmetic mean value of data bytes is 128.5722 (127.5 = random).
        Monte Carlo value for Pi is 3.195779601 (error 1.72 percent).
        Serial correlation coefficient is -0.003620 (totally uncorrelated = 
0.0).
