The arc4 algorithm has always had internal state. It's been buggy from day one in that the state has been stored in the shared tfm object. That means two users sharing the same tfm will end up affecting each other's output, or worse, they may end up with the same output. Fix this by declaring an internal state and storing the state there instead of within the tfm context.
