Well, it seems like the starting wave functions are read from this file, so
after removing file.save the code started from atomic wave functions _and_
potential (?).
I thought the wave functions should be read from the file.wfc{1,2,3,4} (as
I've been running the scf on one machine with 4 processors), and the potential
from file.pot.
I'm currently re-running the scf on 1 processor to see if this problem is
related to the parallel run.

so maybe I'll try the cvs version.
