Adjust some of the [rand.dist] critical values that are too strict - Most critical values are determined empirically by running each test 51 times with a different PRNG seed and finding the smallest symmetric interval around the median that contains 90% of the sample means, variances, etc. - For the Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests, the alpha=0.1 critical value for large N is 1.224/sqrt(N). - For normally distributed variates, the sample kurtosis is distributed as Normal(0, 24/N). For N=1e5, this gives a 90% confidence interval of 0+/-0.0255. For Binomial(40, 0.25), which is approximately normal, the kurtosis is -0.0167, so the relative 90% CI is large, on the order of 0.0255/0.0167 = 153%. In most cases the distribution of the sample kurtosis isn't known analytically, but similarly large relative tolerances can be expected if the kurtosis is near zero.
