Comment(by zimmerma):

 the failures are most likely due to the fact that the {{{mpfr_urandom}}}
 and {{{mpfr_urandomb}}}
 return identical values on processors with different word size in MPFR
 3.1.0
 (see http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-3.1.0/#changes).

 The bad news is that this will need changing the doctests.

 The good news is that we won't need any more different doctests on 32-bit
 and 64-bit
 (assuming the MPIR random generator is independent of the word size).
