These should be fixed by Richard latest change.

Interesingly, before Richards change I got the same error, but now I 
have different ones here:

base/NSNumberFormatter/basic.m:
Failed test:       basic.m:23 ... default format same as Cocoa
Failed test:       basic.m:27 ... Handle leading zeroes in fractional 
part: 1.01
Failed test:       basic.m:31 ... Handle leading zeroes in fractional 
part: 1.1
Failed test:       basic.m:37 ... -setAllowsFloats: does not effect rounding
Failed test:       basic.m:58 ... prefix and suffix used properly
Failed test:       basic.m:62 ... negativeFormat used for -ve number

No idea why this is the case, but I had these tests failing previously.
