srfi 27 random bits: invalid state restore validation

[Marco Maggi]

I am not used to browsing code at launchpad, so I hope that this:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ikarus-libraries-team/ikarus-libraries/srfi/annotate/head%3A/27/random.ss

is a revision recent enough. The state-set function tests the state vector for length 7, but the true length is 6, AFAICS.

There isn't a state-set function. I'm guessing you meant mrg32k3a-state-set. The state is given and tested as a list, not a vector. It tests the length is 7 because the car is a tag symbol, then it binds the cdr (which has length 6), and then references the 6 indexes into that cdr. Checking for length 7 is correct. Have I misunderstood?

Sorry, it was a wrong report (I confused the original file with one I already started to modify some time ago).
