Update your WIEN2k version!
If you use a newer version of WIEN2k, it will "detect" the core leakage 
and offers to create a ".lcore" file, which will direct the run_lapw 
script to call dstart with a special switch to overlap the core 
densities and handle the leakage properly. (of course, this will not 
account for any core-core interactions, but they still should be 
negligible in this case).

I tried to run towards scf and had no problems after the modifications 
of the in1c file mentioned previously.
Eventually, you may have to adjust the s-energy parameters manually, 
since he EMIN/EMAX procedure does not work with these small spheres. In 
particular the P-s energy should probably be reduced to eg. -1.2

(You find in :EPLxx the "mean" energies of each atom and angular 
momentum und should use values close to them.

Also once, you are scf, you may want to try to reintroduce some LOs 
(with properly set E-parameters by hand) to get a more accurate solution.
