It is not a problem. The number of k-points in case.klist is the  
number in the irreducible part of the brillouin zone. It (more or  
less) equals the input you have given to kgen (command line) divided  
by the number of symmetry operations (bottom of case.struct). That  
command line input to kgen is the number of k-points in the full  
brillouin zone. If you want more lines in case.klist, just increase  
the input number (trial and error).
