The result should be the same; I just wanted a fix and did that
one-liner, so that it would be clear the bugs aren't related.

I took your random.d and ran with that:

   [6612, 6650, 6704, 0, 6629, 6834, 6634, 6756, 6590, 6591]
   [6589, 6587, 6636, 0, 6673, 6704, 6647, 6704, 6643, 6817]
   [6744, 6552, 6602, 0, 6641, 6722, 6598, 6676, 6749, 6716]
   [6641, 6583, 6710, 0, 6618, 6684, 6789, 6673, 6683, 6619]
   [6667, 6692, 6600, 0, 6717, 6588, 6660, 6678, 6673, 6725]

so the problem is still there, just a little different.

I'm using an old GDC build, in case that makes any difference:

gcc version 4.6.3 20120106 (prerelease gdc 0.31 - r748:ab99d67f04c2, using dmd 2.057)
