After doing some tests, I see that neither the min entropy nor the Shannon 
Entropy of the raw noise is affected by using the mentioned pragmas at the 
right locations.

So I will prepare a patch tonight.

Just for my edification: why does an -O0 on a self contained file break the 
compile run? Any why do the pragmas work?

Thanks
Stephan
