Comment (by rhaas):

 the test outputs uninitialized variables. Attached please find a patch to
 the test parfile in question which makes PUGH initialize all variables
 with zero so that the result no longer depends on garbage in memory. Note
 that no bug was present since the garbage is in sf_radius[1] which is a
 SphericalSurface whose nphi and ntheta are smaller than the thorn-global
 maxntheta and maxnphi so there is valid garbage present.
