If the quality of these random numbers can compete with those produced by the GNU or BSD C library, and if there are no problems with copyright, I would be happy to incorporate this code into GPC's run time library and to implement BP's `Randomize' and `Random' for GPC on top of that (perhaps with Frank's unit as a replacement for those who specify `--borland-pascal' for 100% compatibility;-).

I'd prefer not to build in my random functions, but rather leave them in a separate unit, perhaps system whose main use will be for 100% BP compatibility, anyway -- when GPC has built-in all the other stuff.
