wow, what a test suite.  If you have some spare time make a turbo charge fir ir.
I wiped it by re-emerging with -test, had to re-make.
Meanwhile you beat me to the submission.

pass test for me

Ok, the test failures are not bad at all.  The very last test runs some deferred examples and just because the have been deferred an error occurs.  Upstream fixed this in their trunk, it can be ignored for the stabilization.
Thanks for your report.

I also can reproduce this. Would be nice to RESTRICT the tests if they're known to be broken and the failures can be ignored.

[Comment 7 Thomas Kahle (RETIRED) 2011-12-13 21:28:01 UTC]

As explained, these test failures really mean nothing.  Installing the package rounds a lot of test computations that are compared against saved results.  I added RESTRICT="test" and close this as upstream.
