	* 0.07:	Long option parsing. Typo fixes by James.

	* 0.08:	Long option parsing now behind define.

	* 0.13:	Tiobench.pl has now seeks as an option,

2000-02-04       Mika Kuoppala <miku@iki.fi>

2000-02-04       Mika Kuoppala <miku@iki.fi>

	* 0.21	 Few fixes in output handling.
	James found out that in glibc 2.1.(x<3) rand_r is broken.
	This should be fixed by how tiotest handles rand_r now.
