As the discussion thread has been quiet for a while, moving this RFC to voting. https://wiki.php.net/rfc/rng_fixes https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/1986Nice work. The discussion persuaded me (Nikita mostly) that aliasing rand() to mt_rand() is sensible. And the compromise to fix the mt_rand() bug is good enough. Everything else is pretty much uncontroversial, I would think. A more efficient RNG can wait for another day. Tom
