[Wien] unexpected error in SOC calculations for non spin-polarized case

Also, consider using the latest WIEN2k version (19.2) because many spin 
orbit (SO) bugs can be seen to have been fixed since the 14.2 version 
that you are using:

http://susi.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/reg_user/updates/

The WIEN2k 19.2 version also has a user friendly init_so_lapw script 
that can be ran to automatically generate the case.inso making it less 
error prone then manually editing the case.inso by hand.

There is a bug fix [1] (or init_so_lapw.patch [2]) needed for WIEN2k 
19.2 that fixes cases WITH inversion symmetry when for when init_so_lapw 
is ran several times.
