I think this is the way to go. While random numbers aren't quite the swamp that other things may be there are enough legitimate variations that I'd rather not weld this one in as an op, except perhaps a "fetch current random number PMC" op, though that should be hanging off the environmental query op that gets us the ENV hash PMC, amongst other things.
