Just to be sure you're aware, barbarians were specifically exempted from the d10-for-full-BAB rule.
Personally, I'm not entirely sure why Pathfinder has kept fully random HP. The possibility of a barbarian rolling a 1 while his wizard buddy rolls a 6 -- God forbid it happen a few levels in a row -- is stupid. They'll probably still change it, but it seems a basic and simple enough change to have made it into the Beta. There may well be no more common a house-rule in 3.5 than taking full randomness out of HP rolls.
