What Eric said. random.c is not "some library code" meant to be pulled apart like this. If you think there are some good general purpose arithmetic functions, by all means develop shared infrastructure in the right place. But I think for this super simple/trivial _below function, you can probably just place it additionally where you're using it, without needing to touch random.c.
