[Wien] "remotemachine: Undefined variable." coming from lapw1para_lapw and lapw2para_lapw

[Laurence Marks]

N.B., to be completely clear lapw1para_lapw and lapw2para_lapw are
copied from SRC during the installation, so if you replace SRC you
have of course to do this yourself or use the Wien2k install scripts
to do it for you.
