Joseph,
         I take it back---I serendipitously managed to reproduce it by
changing the mti member of the Mersenne Twister generator from static to
mutable. Did you do anything of the sort?

Nando, Neil (there's your name on top of the related files: )
a) where do the test data come from? With what accuracy?
b) was the internal sequence generator in the McDigitalEngine supposed to
    interact with the main generator through mti? I sure hope not...

Later,
