It is funny how the LCG is getting overlooked. As far as I know 128 bit state Lehmerthat outputs higher 64 bits works for every application. The problem with the old LCG wath that they had extremely small state (16 bit) and they just gave it right away.
The 128 bit Lehmer is dead simple, very well studied and should work fast on any modern CPU (one 128 bit multiplication).
