With the onsite hybrids (-eece):
-In the interstitial region, case.r2v contains the total
XC potential since the hybrid method is not applied in this region.
-Inside the spheres, case.r2v does not contain the hybrid term coming from
E_{x}^{HF}-E_{x}^{semilocal} (see formula in Sec. 4.5.7 of the UG).
This additional term missing in case.r2v should be small because it is
multiplied by alpha=0.2 and there is some cancellation between the
HF and semilocal components. In addition, this hybrid term in the
potential is applied only to electrons of a given angular momentum
(d or f), whil it zero for the other electrons.
