same here on CentOS 5.x, except the geometry test had fewer failures
logged, only the  "six | box" one, and the differences were
.000000000000001 rounding kinda things, like -0.535533905932738 came out
-0.535533905932737.

the horology tests seem to be all about PST vs PDT and may well be
because Mar 15 is now PDT  when it didn't used to be?

I'm guessing this is good enough to dump his data from.
