[Wien] FW: bad labeling for ISPLIT=-2?

Of course prof. Blaha is right and I have the local rotation matrix
with 45 degree rotation. Also I was not aware of the differences
between the lapw2 -qtl and qtl highlighted to me by Jianxin.
Sorry for the false alarm and thanks for explanation. 

Best regards
Pavel
