I'm a bit surprised, as it worked for me, but thanks for checking. Given the lack of responses from many participants on these patches, on several occations I feel that this series is really not welcome. Initially I just tried to test and fix Spelvin's patch, but if there's not that much interest in it, or even reluctance, I'd rather stop. If it's just that the current state is ugly with the two PRNGs side by side, I can get back to completely removing the original one as I did in my first series, and propose a larger series. Or if nobody's interested, I'd rather know so that I don't have to put more time on it :-/ Thanks for letting me know, Willy
