Comment:

 The new attachment (SplittableGenClass.patch - sorry, should have replaced
 the old) seems to be the consensus on the ML.  It implements:

 {{{
 class RandomGen g where
     next     :: g -> (Int, g)
     genRange :: g -> (Int,Int)
     genRange _ = (minBound, maxBound)

 class (RandomGen g) => SplittableGen g where
     split    :: g -> (g, g)
 }}}
