I just upgraded from Meep-1.0 to Meep-1.1.1 on a cluster running
RHEL/CentOS-5.3 and the test suite failed in "symmetry" (details

at the same (x,y,t) tuple and was apparently triggered by the
following:
This gives a fractional error of 1.20352e-09
This comes out to a fractional error of 9.57653e-12
You might try slightly increasing the "eps_compare" and
"thresh_compare" constants at the top of symmetry.cpp, to see if you
are just seeing roundoff errors slightly larger than we have on our
machines and we set the tolerances slightly too low.
