Are you speaking of the irrgularity in placement, or the shape of the
stones.  The shape of the stones I can do.  The pictures I posted have
relatively small perturbations, but it can be larger.  Placement is a bit
trickier, I'm afraid.  It looks like that wall uses the large roughly
rectagles shimmied with lots of thin stones method.  I might be able to get
that effect with a isosurface based upon the crackle pattern with a granite
purturbation.

I think my code could do it, but it'd take some tweaking.  Hmmm.
