Well I did allow for the seed length in that I ignored the fact it
wasn't long enough but I still can't get the values given.

Has anyone independently checked these?

I verified my code against the parameter test vectors in a draft X9.42
DH and they agreed, unfortunately all the examples had m=160 which meant
certain parts of the algorithm weren't used. Does anyone knows of any
other examples with m > 160?

Thanks, Steve.
