Look at the interop report,
    http://www.w3.org/Signature/2000/10/10-c14n-interop.html
for some pointers to follow.

The spec itself has several examples, too.  Various folks have pulled 
those out into local files and tested that way.  Joseph Reagle and I did 
that for the open source python implementation, part of the PyXML 
package.  Unfortunately, the SourceForge CVS server seems to be down; 
the file you want is xml/test/test_c14n.py

Don't see much of that 'round these parts.
