You are correct. Even though the w32Seed is kept as a 32-bit integer, the
Euphoria set_rand() expects no more than 30-bit positive integers.

Add this line just before the calls to set_rand() in getRandInt...

    w32Seed = remainder(w32Seed, #1F000000)

This will constain the seed value to positive integers up to 30-bits long.
