Summary: SRFI-27 (make-random-source 'fast)  broken

Initial Comment:
The SRFI-27 function make-random-source returns an incorrect value when asked to return a non-secure random source.

To reproduce:
(require-library 'sisc/libs/srfi/srfi-27) ; sources of random bits
(import srfi-27)
(random-source? (make-random-source 'fast))

=> #f
