Sean Owen updated MAHOUT-260:
-----------------------------

         Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 0.3)
         Assignee: Sean Owen

I'd like to revisit this -- well, the issue I'm trying to attack with my patch.

I'm writing a lot more unit tests for my stuff and am hitting the repeatability 
problem above. It comes up pretty fast when directly testing random-related 
classes like SamplingLongPrimitiveIterator.

My patch does indeed fix it. It looks a little heavy, but is the correct way to 
do it.

This isn't a burning issue, though I'd like to commit my tests eventually. But 
wanted to reopen for direct discussion of the patch.
