Should rand be extended to be able to support multiple random number
generators?
=item srand EXPR, RANDGEN_REF
=item srand EXPR
=item srand
Srand would now return a reference to a random number
generator. Calling srand in a void context would effect the global
default random number generator. But in a non-void context would
create a new random number generator, and return a reference to the
generator allowing reseting or extraction of the next number via rand
=item rand EXPR, RANDGEN_REF
=item rand EXPR
=item rand
