Summary:                    random appears to be broken
Description: 
As far as I can tell, random() always returns false.  To reproduce:

context ael-randtest {
   123 => {
      one=0; two=0;
      for(x=0; ${x} < 100; x=${x} + 1) {
         random(50)
            one=${one} + 1;
         else
            two=${two} + 1;
      }
      Verbose(0,${one} ${two});
   }
}

and then 'originate Local/123 at ael-randtest application noop' from the CLI.
 It always outputs '0 100' as opposed to the expected (approx) 50 50.

in 1.4 the functions still have | as argument seperator.
This commit fixes the use of RAND in the ael random function.
