> The variance in the second case should be close to 1/100.0 rather than 1/sqrt(2)/100.0, right?

Yes, but experiments exposed precisely 1/sqrt(2)/100.0 and I were confused by this fact. But now I noticed a comment at the top of the test: "Only works for distributions which do not consume variates in pairs". This test is not applicable to vonmisesvariate() which consumes more than one variate. u1, u2 and u3 are not independent.
