On a related note, how did you get the other random generators working? I tried to compile this and it gives me an error:
-=-=-=-
import std.random, std.stdio, std.datetime;

void main() {
        int[] arr = new int[5_000_000];
    foreach(i, ref e; arr)
        e = i;
    auto rng = MinstdRand0(1);
    rng.seed(unpredictableSeed);
    StopWatch sw = AutoStart.yes;
    randomShuffle(arr, rng);
    sw.stop();

    writeln("Took ", sw.peek().to!("msecs", double)(), "ms");
}

The error:
-=-=-=-
C:\D\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos\std\random.d(1263): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (rndGen()) of type MersenneTwisterEngine!(uint,32,624,397,31,-1727483681u,11,7,-1658038656u,15,-272236544u,18) to LinearCongruentialEngine!(uint,16807,0,2147483647)

Is this a bug in 2.059? Or am I doing something wrong?
