a random number generator made so that you cannot statistically guess 
the next number, iirc mt + a secure hasher should work this way.

Maybe I should test and attach a patch first ^^.

Note that "what concern us" for me is just make sure that the ssrc are 
unique inside the rtp session (so the stream index fits the bill), if 
someone would like to use ffrtp in scenarios in which you get more 
senders per rtp session the whole thing ceases to be enough.
