 variable directly, but something more appropriate, e.g. GRASS_RANDOM_SEED
 (or GRASS_RND_SEED, which is what r.mapcalc used prior to the RNG
 changes).

 GRASS_RANDOM_SEED.patch. Can be applied in this way?

 The variable should be renamed, because it now uses `GRASS_RANDOM_SEED`
 instead of `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`, i.e.
 `s/source_date_epoch/grass_random_seed/g`.
