Hi,
No, it has nothing to do with FS, but is used eventually in the NMR 
calculations.
However, in principle it should be written only if you have a unit 12 in 
the lapw1.def file, which should "never" be the case.

When checking this, however, I found that the corresponding logical 
variable "writeham" is never set to .false. and maybe your compiler sets 
this therefore to .true. by default.

a) check you lapw1.def file:  there must not be any line for unit 12
b) modifiy inilpw.f in SRC_lapw1 and insert a line at the beginning:
....
       dokorig=.false.
       writeham=.false.        ! <-----   insert this line

Regards
