Same here of OS X 10.11 in Pharo 6. Not reproducible.
Same for Pharo 4. Are you sure thereâs not another process that uses the generator unprotected?

Note the same VM as yours

Could you try some other combinations of machine/VM/image?

I'm having problems understanding why the Integer>>#atRandom sometimes return a number greater than the receiver.
This problem only occurs when forking processes that generate random number using the above mentioned method. Obviously, all processes share the same RNG from the Collection class.
Code below can reproduce (most of the time) the bug.
| n | n := 3172918. 5 timesRepeat: [ [n timesRepeat: [ | alea | alea := n atRandom. (alea > n) ifTrue: [ self halt]]] forkAt: Processor userBackgroundPriority ].
I'm on Windows 10, Pharo4.0 Latest update: #40627.
