    Although normally it might not be 100% valid to make a 64-bit hash out of 
two 32-bit hashes this way (I'm not clear that reusing the seed doesn't connect 
the bits in some subtle way), it's certainly a big improvement and probably 
entirely fine for this purpose. I'd still like to remove XORShiftRandom, but 
that can be for another day.
