   From Robert M. Ziff, "Four-tap shift-register-sequence
   random-number generators," Computers in Physics 12(4), Jul/Aug
   1998, pp 385-392.  A generalized feedback shift-register (GFSR)
   is basically an xor-sum of particular past lagged values.  A 
   four-tap register looks like:
      ra[nd] = ra[nd-A] ^ ra[nd-B] ^ ra[nd-C] ^ ra[nd-D]
   
   Ziff notes that "it is now widely known" that two-tap registers
   have serious flaws, the most obvious one being the three-point
   correlation that comes from the defn of the generator.  Nice
   mathematical properties can be derived for GFSR's, and numerics
   bears out the claim that 4-tap GFSR's with appropriately chosen
   offsets are as random as can be measured, using the author's test.

   This implementation uses the values suggested the the author's
   example on p392, but altered to fit the GSL framework.  The "state"
   is 2^14 longs, or 64Kbytes; 2^14 is the smallest power of two that
   is larger than D, the largest offset.  We really only need a state
   with the last D values, but by going to a power of two, we can do a
   masking operation instead of a modulo, and this is presumably
   faster, though I haven't actually tried it.  The article actually
   suggested a short/fast hack:

   #define RandomInteger (++nd, ra[nd&M]=ra[(nd-A)&M]\
                          ^ra[(nd-B)&M]^ra[(nd-C)&M]^ra[(nd-D)&M])

   so that (as long as you've defined nd,ra[M+1]), then you ca do things
   like: 'if (RandomInteger < p) {...}'.

   Note that n&M varies from 0 to M, *including* M, so that the
   array has to be of size M+1.  Since M+1 is a power of two, n&M
   is a potentially quicker implementation of the equivalent n%(M+1).

   This implementation copyright (C) 1998 James Theiler, based on
   the example mt.c in the GSL, as implemented by Brian Gough.
