    I am looking for a good public-domain pseudo-random number generator
    written entirely in C.

If you know yor CPM version will run on a Z-80, try using the refresh
register as your random seed.  It should be random enough.

Also, BDS-C has a random-number generator included, if you can use that
instead of software toolworks C.  The code for the generator may even be
in the public domain.

Hope this helps.
