This is already in 0.64, but was okay in 0.63
In R version <= 0.63 :
> .Random.seed <- c(111,2,3)
> rnorm(1)
Warning: Wrong length .Random.seed; forgot initial RNGkind? set to Wichmann-Hill
[1] -0.4811529
> .Random.seed
[1] 0 6968 28861 26054
>
Now in 0.65 (pre-release) and both versions of 0.64 :
> .Random.seed <- c(111,2,3)
> rnorm(1)

{I know that maybe, I should fix this; however, I don't have time just now,
and in order not to forget this one...
