I know that the tests will be necessarily non-deterministic, but we
can at least get closer to having determinism by running the same test 1000 times and expecting some reasonable number of passes right? Could
we use the underlying distribution that we are testing to sort out
this value?

This *is* what the test is doing, although it repeats 50 times
(takes quite some time already) instead of 1000.
As I've reported on this list, it is quite possible that the
failure probabilities are underestimated; (first) review welcome:
the tests are fairly well documented as to what they are doing
but I might have committed some bugs wrt the statistics involved.
