I wrote a .pov include that almost does this.  It deosn't get
the seed from the time, it gets the seed from a file.  So far
not very useful, right?  well: it allows the new updated seed
to be written back to that same file.  So the random numbers
are different between renders.  I think I posted this once but
I forget.  If anyone asks, I'll post it again.
