In Lua 5.1.4 on Windows XP, I get this (stock Lua, no C++, different 
machine than I used in my original report):

Seed: 3063121584        12      2356    6482    744
Seed: 2428144928        12      2356    6482    744
Seed: 3559301251        12      2356    6482    744
Seed: 4287790062        12      2356    6482    744
Seed: 2737803158        12      2356    6482    744
