Follow-up Comment #15, bug #54342 (project octave):

The question for me is whether we should purposefully break backward
compatibility, and move to Matlab compatibility so that the same random number
seed value would produce the same random number streams on both Octave and
Matlab.  This could be important for people who want to directly take Matlab
code and run it in Octave.

See bug #42557: rand seed for twister algorithm differs from Matlab.
