Re: slib's random number generator is broken

Note that I didn't write all of GSL: only a part of it (and I
coordinate it).  James Theiler wrote the excellent random number
stuff.

But I doubt that it can be used in Guile directly because it would
need a copyright assignment form.  Unfortunately James works for Los
Alamos, which means that it would take forever for that to happen.
