Thanks Martin,
Once the CCC approves these changes, I will push them to jdk8.

Martin's "random" wishlist:
- I wish the cool convenience methods in TLR like nextInt(least, bound)
could be promoted to Random.java, or perhaps to a utility class Randoms.java
- I wish that TLR didn't continue to extend the life of Random's poor
PRNG, and at least provide one with a 2**64 period. I don't see much
value producing a sequence compatible with Random, given that setSeed is
not available.
but it's probably too late.
