Comment (by muks):
It seems that there is a very small probability (due it it being a
randomly picked number) that you can have less than 10 unique values. We
have to work around this in tests, or simply ignore the issue (if it's too
difficult to fix) as the probability of the test failing is very low.
9 out of 10 values would occur once in 1/(0.9^100) times. Similarly, for 8
out of 10, 7 out of 10, etc.
