[Wien] A possible bug in abclm.f (of LAPWSO)

[Guo-ping Zhang]

Thanks a lot, Peter!

It is true that they are same for several years, but it is different from 
WIEN97 version. I also printed out k+G vectors and found the current 
abclm.f and hamilt.F produce different results. When k+G vectors are input 
into hamilt.F, they are already multiplied by b vectors, but when k+G 
is input into abclm.f they are not. Since alm and blm must be same in 
lapwso and lapw1, then one of the above treatments must be incorrect.

Best regards,
Guopig
