-  /* --- The algorithm --- *
-   *
-   * Rather simpler than most.  Find the number of bits in the number %$l$%
-   * (i.e., the integer %$b$% such that %$2^{b - 1} \le l < 2^b$%), and
-   * generate pseudorandom integers with %$n$% bits (but not, unlike in the
-   * function above, with the top bit forced to 1).  If the integer is
-   * greater than or equal to %$l$%, try again.
-   *
-   * This is similar to the algorithms used in @lcrand_range@ and friends,
-   * except that I've forced the `raw' range of the random numbers such that
-   * %$l$% itself is the largest multiple of %$l$% in the range (since, by
-   * the inequality above, %$2^b \le 2l$%).  This removes the need for costly
-   * division and remainder operations.
-   *
-   * As usual, the number of iterations expected is two.
