+/* This is a reincarnation of the infamously bad RANDU generator.
+ The sequence is,
+
+ x_{n+1} = (a x_n) mod m
+
+ with a = 65539 and m = 2^31 = 2147483648. The seed specifies
+ the initial value, x_1.
+
+ The theoretical value of x_{10001} is 1623524161.
+
+ The period of this generator is 2^29.
+
+ Note: Knuth describes this generator as "really horrible".
+
+ From: Park and Miller, "Random Number Generators: Good ones are
+ hard to find" Communications of the ACM, October 1988, Volume 31,
