if the cvar "sv_threads" is not 0 (default since r03484) the layout of RMAs is always the same.

The reason for this behaviour is, that the threads, that create the maps always use the same sequence of random numbers due to a missing "srand" command.
I atached a quickfix for this problem.
It's a quickfix, because ...
- it might break some testcode
- with more than one thread the probability all threads use the same seed is high
