That was the reason. Now without DXML I pass the test without modifying
Eps:

List of 3
 $ d: num [1:2] 12.07  1.16

So may be it is better do disable dxml support by default in ./configure?

The following patch should do this:
--- configure.in.orig        Fri Jun  2 23:10:20 2000
+++ configure.in     Fri Jun  2 23:10:02 2000

+  use_dxml=false)

 AC_ARG_WITH(atlas,
   [  --with-atlas            use ATLAS library (if available)],
