I originally wanted to vendor my libtorsion code and link to it, but it felt clunky since libtorsion pulls in a ton of crypto that bitcoin doesn't need. Also, since I was focusing on just a few algorithms, it gave me the opportunity to optimize a lot of them (in particular, the ECC backend was optimized for secp256k1 whereas in libtorsion it supports all kinds of curves).
Because of all of this, there's probably some leftover comments. That comment isn't true anymore. rand.c is definitely used internally for libmako, just not libtorsion.
