Obviously I test the code before using it, and it worked fine since oct. 
2010 on different systems: Fedora, Ubuntu, Kubuntu and also on Cygwin 
(as long as one uses GCC-4.5). It is only recently, with GCC >= 4.7, I 
noticed the problems on Cygwin.

BTW, I changed the method to initialize the random seed more than a 
month ago.

Ciao,
 Angelo.
