if I remember correctly the phonon code doesn't (yet) store the 
intermediate results needed to restart into a single file

For those of you not especially fluent in Italian, the question
(which was intended to me and not to the forum, of course) was
whether the 'centralisation' of restart files into a single file hadn't
already solved this problem of restarting in parallel
