Dear Blaha,
    
     I think the struct file created by sgroup is not correct.
The struct is:
Title
P   LATTICE,NONEQUIV.ATOMS: 4225_Pmm2
MODE OF CALC=RELA unit=bohr
151.075146  7.553757 10.682626 90.000000 90.000000 90.000000
ATOM  -1: X=0.25250000 Y=0.00000000 Z=0.00000000 <-------------------------------
          MULT= 2          ISPLIT= 8
      -1: X=0.74750000 Y=0.00000000 Z=0.00000000 <-------------------------------
Ga1        NPT=  781  R0=0.00005000 RMT=    2.2800   Z: 31.0
LOCAL ROT MATRIX:    0.0000000 1.0000000 0.0000000
                     0.0000000 0.0000000 1.0000000
                     1.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000
In our calculation we build a superlattice, one side is compressed (1%), the another side is expanded (1%).
so the two Ga1 atoms should not equal. and the 0.2525 atom is not exist in our initial struct.
