Numpy Random Number Generators

I've ported a large portion of the Numpy random number generation library to
D.  (I excluded the uniform random number generators because Phobos and Tango
already have good implementations of these, and a few distributions because
they were obscure and hard to test properly.  I may add the obscure
probability distributions later.)

The results appear pretty good  (I added unit tests that make sure the results
are sane while I was at it).

The module is licensed under the BSD license.  The code is available at:
http://dsource.org/projects/dstats/browser/trunk/random.d

Docs are at http://svn.dsource.org/projects/dstats/docs/random.html
although there's not much there.  If you understand the probability
distribution you're trying to sample from, it's pretty self-explanatory.  If
not, a little bit of ddoc isn't going to help, and Wikipedia is probably a
better choice.
