WIEN2k_05 has a more stringent test of possible ghostbands and thus stops, 
so that you are not allowed to make a "bad" calculation.

All you need to do is to change the energy parameter. Have a look into 
case.output2. Check for "ghostband" and you will see it happens for a 
state at high energy. Search for this energy, and you see that it happens 
for a Pt-d state. 

Thus what you have to do is to increase the E-parameter in case.in1 for 
the d-states (l=2) from 0.3 to eg. 0.7 Ry.
