[Wien] RMTs changing on their own?

For the :WARN, please do "grep -ie Warn case.scf", sometimes there is more
information. If that does not help send the case.scf to my private email.

Not sure about the other. Peter added something to automatically change
RMTs in the latest version, not sure if that played a role (I have never
used it). Is there a clminter.log or similar in the directory? Do "grep
clminter" on :log?
