Martin,

Could it be that you are on a platform that do special 
(or don't do) regarding initialisation ? And that this
kind of problem is only there with imissing tiles (="hole") ?
I managed to pass a full test last month on weddell, with
Constantinos magic option to trap un-initialized (local) 
variables. But this missing tiles is not part of the test-list.
Would be a good idea to check-in in Contrib the whole stuff,
as Chris suggested.
