  This is a maximally equidistributed combined Tausworthe generator
  based on code from GNU Scientific Library 1.5 (30 Jun 2004)

   x_n = (s1_n ^ s2_n ^ s3_n)

   s1_{n+1} = (((s1_n & 4294967294) <<12) ^ (((s1_n <<13) ^ s1_n) >>19))
   s2_{n+1} = (((s2_n & 4294967288) << 4) ^ (((s2_n << 2) ^ s2_n) >>25))
   s3_{n+1} = (((s3_n & 4294967280) <<17) ^ (((s3_n << 3) ^ s3_n) >>11))

   The period of this generator is about 2^88.

   Equidistributed Combined LFSR Generators", Mathematics of
   Computation, 68, 225 (1999), 261--269:

        ... the k_j most significant bits of z_j must be non-
        zero, for each j. (Note: this restriction also applies to the
        computer code given in [4], but was mistakenly not mentioned in
        that paper.)

   This affects the seeding procedure by imposing the requirement
   s1 > 1, s2 > 7, s3 > 15.
