On a 10x1GE "PIC" it doesn't take away any capacity from the real ports,
so you still get all 10 GE ports plus an 11th gig of tunnel capacity
(hence the pseudo port /10 name). On the 1x10GE "PIC" it disables the
entire port to give you a 10G tunnel, and uses the regular /0 name. 
Personally I always wanted a free 1G tunnel on a 10G port (since I own
100% 10GE cards), but alas that wasn't supported last I looked. :)
