I don't have the ASM code in front of me, but if `random' is intended to 
be a standalone implementation, it should probably avoid using that name 
to avoid conflicts with the stdlib routine.   (Andreas can make that 
substitution in his copy to avoid this conflict, e.g. replace all 
declarations, definitions, and uses of `random' to `asmrandom' or some 
such.)

The general point here was that the `supported' version of Swarm is 
effectively on Unix-like systems as most of us volunteers that know the 
Swarm code use Linux or MacOSX and have the sources and recent builds at 
hand in one of these environments.    So, a person that wants answers 
here that are feasible for us to actually check (as opposed to educated 
guesses or vague speculation), will probably find better results by 
using the same kind of setup.    I personally use Windows for various 
things, and I've found a good coping mechanism for doing everything in 
one place is virtualization.
