Previously, we + had been using the % ("modulo") operator to try to generate a 1/N + chance of picking each stream, but this behaves badly with many + platforms' choice of weak RNG. Fix for bug 7801; bugfix on + 0.2.2.20-alpha. + - Use our own weak RNG when we need a weak RNG. Windows's rand() + and Irix's random() only return 15 bits; Solaris's random() + returns more bits but its RAND_MAX says it only returns 15, and + so on.
