Could you please give some more details? I'm not seeing that
with the latest snapshot on Linux:

Running "echo(rands(1, 10, 10));" multiple times gives:

ECHO: [2.08048, 3.45319, 1.36751, 4.80183, 4.0744, 9.39971, 2.11607, 3.08498, 9.07068, 6.88254]
ECHO: [4.95086, 3.34167, 2.69303, 3.85545, 9.16911, 3.89293, 9.69564, 5.41827, 2.59807, 1.12824]
ECHO: [8.63941, 2.48244, 2.82807, 2.39066, 2.08937, 9.30696, 7.0541, 1.27273, 8.42552, 6.06204]
ECHO: [9.32437, 6.14479, 9.30244, 2.38059, 8.89836, 7.00739, 9.3399, 8.28212, 7.09716, 7.86093]
ECHO: [5.85335, 5.07632, 2.85821, 1.54428, 7.20729, 1.94257, 2.59274, 7.59775, 4.32569, 3.2447]
