POSIX specifies that jrand48() returns a signed 32-bit value (in the range [-2^31, 2^31)), but our code was returning an unsigned 32-bit value (in the range [0, 2^32)). This doesn't actually matter to any existing call site, because they all cast the "long" result to int32 or uint32; but it will doubtless bite somebody in the future. To fix, cast the arithmetic result to int32 explicitly before the compiler widens it to long (if widening is needed). While at it, upgrade this file's far-short-of-project-style comments. Had there been some peer pressure to document pg_jrand48() properly, maybe this thinko wouldn't have gotten committed to begin with. Backpatch to v10 where pg_jrand48() was added, just in case somebody back-patches a fix that uses it and depends on the standard behavior.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
