Comment(by anonymous):

 In case of the mersenne_twister generator the Generator::result_type is
 UIntType. Probably more correct would be initialization with
 Generator::result_type(), i.e.

 generator_iterator() : m_g(0), m_value(Generator::result_type()) {}

 Default construction of integral types are guaranteed to be 0.
