   Also, I think Olin once said that the scheme48 random number generator
   wasn't very good, or was slow, or something, but I haven't been able
   to figure out how to effectively seed the slib one. Anyone have any
   suggestions?

Other way around -- I used the slib generator for my PostScript maze
generator, and it was incredibly slow. I haven't tried S48's.
