I suppose I should let Nickolay explain his reasons for the change, but the 
only reason I can accept for breaking existing applications is that the 
behavior being changed gives wrong answers.  Unless a clear case can be 
made that changing generator values in read-only transactions causes wrong 
answers, I think this change is a mistake.
