If the stdLib changes and you need to use the same, then you're unfortunately going to be suck with porting the previous version into your own library. It's pretty forward thinking from the devs here, I would love to see my boss' face if I told him we need time to port some of the stdLib incase they update it in the future.

I had to check for my own curiosity, but it looks like the Random class has not been updated in 12 or so years. At least in the inital subset of framework to core.
