 Hi,

 First time posting a bug report on trac. The bug I'd like to report is
 "random_value" returns composite numbers for large integers. For example
 m =
 
random_prime(100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000)
 returned
 71944724797690175157403755256108218794891687825722145298657347991279721529
 which is a composite number ending in 9.
