I second the thought that reproducibility across different versions is an important feature of any random generation library. Sadly, I didn't use a language yet which supported such a flavor of reproducibility for a significant period of time in its default random library, so I have to use my own randomness routines when it matters.
It can be done by using standardized algorithms like one in FIPS 186-2. Because it's standardized, it can't be improved.
