[Wien] orb calculations on IBM-AIX and Linux give different results

Dear Wien2k developers and users,
Recently I have found something really strange about orb (LDA+U, nsic=1)
calculations.
When I did some test calculations using MnO in ferromagnetic phase (
using runsp_lapw), I found results from Linux and AIX are significantly
different.
On Linux, U_d=0.3 Ry. (J_d is always taken as zero) is already enough to
give a band gap in the majority spin channel. But on AIX 5.3, even using
U_d=0.6 Ry. still does not give a gap. The total energy are also different.
On the other hand, a pure runsp_lapw without -orb does give identical
results on Linux and AIX.
Do you have any idea about that?
Thank you very much in advance!
Hong
