Much better. Do note the comments from Emile van Sebille and Paul
Rubin. There are some minor style and efficiency points, but it
looks reasonable.

Incidentally, as of Python 2.4, the standard library offers
random.SystemRandom, which will generate integers in any desired
range using os.urandom as the entropy source.
