! There are four combinations of repeatable and image_distinct.  If a program
! is compiled without the -fcoarray= option or with -fcoarray=single, then
! execution of the compiled executable does not use image_distinct as it is
! irrelevant (although required).  The behavior is as follows:
!
! call random_init(.true., .true.)
!
! The sequence of random numbers is repeatable within an instance of program
! execution.  That is, calls to random_init(.true., .true.) during the
! execution will reset the sequence of RN to the same sequence.  If the
! program is compiled with -fcoarray=lib and multiple images are instantiated,
! then each image accesses a repeatable distinct sequence of random numbers.
! There are no guarantees that multiple execution of the program will access
! the same sequence.
!
! call random_init(.false., .false.)
! call random_init(.false., .true.)
!
! The sequence of random numbers is determined from process-dependent seeds.
! On each execution of the executable, different seeds will be used.  For
! -fcoarray=lib and multiple instantiated images, each image will use
! process-dependent seeds.  In other words, the two calls have identical
! behavior.
!
! call random_init(.true., .false.)
! 
! For a program compiled without the -fcoarray= option or with
! -fcoarray=single, a single image is instantiated when the executable is
! run.  If the executable causes multiple images to be instantiated, then
! image_distinct=.false. in one image cannot affect the sequence of random
! numbers in another image.  As gfortran gives each image its own independent
! PRNG, this condition is automatically satisfied.
