The original seeding procedures could cause spurious artifacts for some seed values. They are still available through the alternative generators gsl_rng_mt19937_1999 and gsl_rng_mt19937_1998. Note the last sentence here. This is all somewhat technical code, so when I noticed the above I could never figure what exactly R was doing in its implementation. But "innocent until proven guilty" -- a sufficient number of people ought to have looked at...

Although I am basically not an R user, I have installed version 3.3.1 and am also the author of a statistics program written in Visual Basic that contains a component which correctly implements the Mersenne Twister (MT) algorithm. I believe that it is
