I've taken a look at these, and they suggest to me that you ran the 
tests in a non-standard way. Did you use the RunTest script? It looks as 
if you ran tests 7,8, and 9 without the -dfa option because the output 
shows that it used the normal matching function rather than the DFA 
matcher. This explains why it did not work as expected.
