Comment (by cmbarton):

 We hit this unfixed bug again and while an error trap would help, we
 really just need to change the documentation it seems.

 r.random.surface output=surf generates the error
 r.random.surface output=surf seed=0 (or seed=ANYTHING) does not generate
 an error, though seed<0 generates a warning
 r.random.surface output=surf seed=- does NOT generate an error
