I found this in the archive:

I am experiencing the same problem. However it works with
variate_generator - see attached code. Is this simply a documentation
bug which should say `Must always use variate_generator' or are the
distributions supposed to work with any source of randomness? In which
case they don't in 1.35.0 and I will go report it.
Thanks,
Kevin Martin

return 0;
