 for background.  We're considering updating the pyrex-based support to use
 Cython instead, and this patch updates the mtrand component.  There are no
 changes to the original pyrex sources, only the generated C code is
 different, as well as a trivial change to the code-genearation script to
 call cython instead of pyrexc.
