The test fails also on ppc and s390, so likely it's related to the char type being unsigned by default on arm, ppc and s390. Build with -fsigned-char appended to CFLAGS makes the test suite to pass successfully. I've reported the issue to upstream.

unfortunately no link, the test suite asks for sending email to yaz-help@indexdata, but got a reply a while ago:

Thanks. That makes perfectly sense. We'll fix it.
