Zilefac,

Those do look different.  I called that data frame "arc", and ran this
code
to look at all three versions of the coordinates.

par(mfrow=c(2, 2))
map("world", type="n", xlim=range(xy$X), ylim=range(xy$Y),
mar=c(1, 1, 2,
1))
points(xy[, c("X", "Y")])
mtext("xy lat long", side=3, font=2, line=1)
plot(utm, xlab="", ylab="", main="xy utm",
axes=FALSE)
plot(arc, xlab="", ylab="", main="arc utm",
axes=FALSE)
