This exposed inconsistent randint() behavior between SciPy and the Python
random module. The Python randint includes the upper endpoint. The SciPy
version excludes it.

>>> from random import randint
>>> for i in range(50):
...   print randint(0,2),
...
0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 2 1 1 0 2 2 1 2 0 2 0 0 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 2 2 0 0 1 2 2 0 1 1 0 2 0 1 2 1 2 2 2 1 1

>>> from scipy import *

>>> print random.randint(0,2, size=(100,))
[0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1
 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0
 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 0]
