Hm. The first thing I thought was "portability problem" --- I had been
testing on HPUX. But I just tried it on a Linux Intel box and see no
failure there either.

Note I'm testing CVS tip, not 7.2. Could we have fixed whatever the bug
is? Seems unlikely, if it just appeared between 7.2 and 7.2.1 for you.

Another possible reason for differences is configuration. I used a
pretty plain-vanilla configure:

./configure --with-CXX --with-tcl --enable-cassert --enable-debug

How about you?
