Hi,

Our random number generator (RNG) is a bit old, and I think the state of
the art has progressed some since 1999 or whenever that that code is
from. Does anyone know of a good replacement? Anyone want to replace
Guile's with something with a longer period, and perhaps which assumes
64-bit arithmetic?

Please respond in the form of a patch :) See random.c.

Andy
