Hasard can be used to generate a random seed, but it looks like you 
don't need that for GSL. Reseed an engine (set a new random seed) can be 
added as a new function, so the API is not changed.

Another idea would be to use Hasard as a GSL engine. So you can use 
Hasard engines in GSL: Mersenne Twister, ISAAC, Arcfour, glib, openssl, 
gcrypt, GMP, KISS, /dev/urandom, etc.
