31 * Using this interface, it is possible for the application to tell
32 * libguile to use a different RNG. This is desirable if it is
33 * necessary to use the same RNG everywhere in the application in
34 * order to prevent interference, if the application uses RNG
35 * hardware, or if the application has special demands on the RNG.
