Summary: Random on PPC is outside acceptable range.

Initial Comment:
On LinuxPPC, with gcc 2.96, python's (2.2.2) random function is outside the acceptable range. For example:

>>> import random
>>> print random.random()
1.35933812391

This random function, I believe, is supposed to produce numbers between 0 and 1.
