[Wien] L2main - QTL-B error for the bcc Fe wire

Just a quick guess, excuse me if it is too quick: when I look at your 
structure with XCRYSDEN (I am attaching the file) I see that it is not from 
the bcc Fe. If you put the Fe atoms in the centers of cells you'll be able to 
increase Rmt, and maybe then you'll get rid of the ghost bands. Though, if 
you need such a strange structure - alas...
