[Wien] kram NaN output

Hello all!
I've tested different values for emin and emax in case.injoint, and whenever emin is negative, I have again
the NaN's in the output optics files. The value of emax can be set higher than the original value in case.inop
and nothing strange happens...well, without looking into the physics of it, I mean, I have numbers which I can
plot in the optics output files. It seems that a negative value of emin in case.injoint is forbidden for some
reason I'm missing.
By the way, the case.sumrules file keeps being empty, but this is due to the fact that I'm using all the time
switch 4 in joint, am I right?
Regards
Roberto
