The first element in the reference table has a large magnitude (3.48e6). The 
error tolerance was 1.0e-8 which was 14 digits smaller. The change from 
RealMatrix to RealVector scheduled the numeric operations differently, despite 
the same values should theoretically be computed (the matrix used was a 1x1 
matrix from which the trace was extracted, now we compute a vectorial dot 
product which leads to a double).
After the change, the resulting value was about -3482258.63459583 (last 
significant digit changed). This seemed acceptable to me. A better change would 
probably have been to replace an absolute threshold by a relative threshold.

Do you want me to revert the change ?
