The following code (using rgamma) hangs

| Dirk also pointed out (in the bug report) that you get the following
|
| ##########################################################
| int main(void)
| {
|      set_seed(0, 0);
|      cout << "one normal " << norm_rand() << endl;
| }
| ##########################################################
|
| edd at max:/tmp$ g++ -o faheem faheem.cpp -lRmath; ./faheem
| one normal -inf

Well I actually sent you a complete program of which you showed only an
incomplete part.  A better quote would have shown all:

 #define MATHLIB_STANDALONE
 #include <Rmath.h>
 #include <iostream>
 using std::cout;
 using std::endl;

 int main(void) {
     set_seed(0, 0);
     cout << "one normal " << norm_rand() << endl;
 }


That does indeed return -Inf on my Ubuntu server.  It works with other seed
values as does the rgamma which hangs only for value 0 and 0.
