One possibility: your error is a 'segmentation fault', as is mentioned in your
case.dayfile. You are now using lapw2c, and that's a different program  
than lapw2. It might be that lapw2 works fine on your system, but  
lapw2c not. You might need to recompile lapw2c with different options  
(search the mailing list archive for segmentation fault, you will find  
hundreds of mails about this).
