Howdy,

The terms of the MersnneTwister appear to be non-free as noted in this file.


wfmath-1.0.1\wfmath\MersenneTwister.h:

// The original code included the following notice:
//
//     When you use this, send an email to: matumoto at math.keio.ac.jp
//     with an appropriate reference to your work.


There appear to be versions of this algorithm by the same person under free
terms, such as:

http://www.math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~m-mat/MT/MT2002/CODES/mt19937ar.c

It should be fairly simple to replace the DFSG non-free file with a free
one, and test that it works.

Cheers,
  Paul
