[Wien] Bad RMT

I agree with both of you, however, at the moment it is really simple to 
"overlook" small spheres and if you are unexperienced, you may have no 
idea "what is a small sphere".

In WIEN2k_15 it will change to:
a) init_lapw -b        will stop with an error
b) init_lapw and init at w2web  will display clear "POSSIBLE ERROR" 
messages with a hint that the structure might be wrong. However, one can 
neglect this and continue.

The problem: I just helped to make calculations for HUGE pressures, and 
then the spheres can get pretty small ....
