8491	boost::random::discrete_distribution ignores the first element	astralstorm@…	No-Maintainer	"It seems that discrete_distribution can set the first item weight to 0, which should not be possible.

Categorical distribution like this must use all supplied items - of course you use actual weight 0 as a marker of ""can't happen"", which should be documented.

The attached testcase demonstrates the problem. (As well as shows another one that discrete_distribution can't handle negative weights properly.)
