[Paul Eggert]

branch: master
commit 640fd9b594fa376e6493efbe0cf083e1270ddd3f
Author: Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

    Sleep less in update-game-score
    
    This is mostly to avoid interface hassles with time/srand/rand.
    * lib-src/update-game-score.c (main): Don’t use ‘srand’ or ‘time’.
    (lock_file): Don’t sleep if we unlocked the lock file.  When
    sleeping, always just sleep 1 s.  This avoids the need for calling
    ‘time’ and ‘rand’, the utility of which was dubious anyway.
