Routine Description:
A simple uniform random number generator, based on D.H. Lehmer's 1948
alrogithm.
Arguments:
Seed - Supplies a pointer to the random number generator seed.
Return Value:
ULONG - returns a random number uniformly distributed over [0..MAXLONG]

Routine Description:
This algorithm is preferred over RtlRandom() for two reasons:
(a) it is faster than RtlRandom() since it saves one multiplication, one addition and
one modulus operation. This almost doubles the performance since it halves the number of
clocks even on a pipelined Integer Unit such as the P6/ia64 processors i.e. ~ 52% perf gain.
Plain RtlRandom() suffers from a RAW data dependency that integer pipelines cannot exploit.
(b) it produces better random numbers than RtlRandom() since the period of the random
numbers generated is comparatively higher.
The algorithm here is based on a paper by Carter Bays and S.D.Durham [ACM Trans. Math.
Software 2, pp. 59-64].
Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming (Seminumerical Algorithms) outlines the algorithm
with proofs to support claims (a) and (b) above.
Arguments:
Seed - Supplies a pointer to the random number generator seed.
Return Value:
ULONG - returns a random number uniformly distributed over [0..MAXLONG]
