Thanks for your report. Your findings are absolutely correct.

I only fixed the normalization for non-spinpolarized SO calculations, 
but not the spin-polarized ones.

The new opmain.f (SRC_optic) should correct this.

Regards

PS: WIEN2k_17.1 will be released very soon (and will contain all the fixes)
