Ah yes. That looks to be from the documentation merge in r5610. It's a bug
that shows up in Microsoft compilers because they can't handle long strings.
You should file a ticket, it needs to be fixed. As a quick (it's all
relative) workaround, you could break up the long strings in the mtrand.c
file into string per line and use line continuations.
