In the random number generator MARSAGLIA_MULTICARRY, your algorithm is
different than the one in the original reference that you give in the R manual:
Marsaglia in his post to the mailing list {\it sci.stat.math} on September 29,
1997.
The last line in the R program has a ^
while Marsaglia's algorithm has a +.
This gives very different random number generators.

The full line in RNG.c is:
    return ((I1 << 16)^(I2 & 0177777)) * i2_32m1; /* in [0,1) */
