Comment (by tscholl2):
I added a `set_seed` function on a lot of the interfaces such as gap, gp,
magma, maxima, R, and singular. This allows setting the seed for the
corresponding random number generator.
This made solving the ticket very easy by just calling "set_seed" when the
interface is started with `_start`.
I think someone should rewrite the `randstate` class to use these methods
if possible. However that would require someone with more cython
knowledge.
Also `set_seed` still needs to be implemented on a few more interfaces,
but those are not free so they are not as easy to test with.
