[Ipopt] Random number generator compilation error

[Jason Moore]

I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 with gcc 4.8.2 and I'm getting a compile error about a
random number generator:

 g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../../Ipopt/src/Common -O3 -pipe -DNDEBUG

 This is the GNU C compiler, a fairly portable optimizing compiler for C.

 This is a dependency package providing the default GNU C compiler.

I've seen some other messages online saying that this is an error with gcc
4.8.3 and that it should be fixed in trunk. I've tried 3.12 and trunk (btw,
this commit https://projects.coin-or.org/Ipopt/changeset/2584 is causing
configure to fail for me because it can't locate one of the new files or
something), but both fail with the same compile error.

Any ideas what is wrong?
