Since you need the patch to work on 5.10, I think we’ll need a workaround for 
VS2013. 

Since this is replacing qrand(), and it’s only going to get used for one minor 
release (as I believe we should drop the compiler for 5.11), I’d be ok if it 
used the implementation that we had for qrand(), or something similar.
