So, apparently there is an error in how the algorithm estimates the  
maximum possible distance between two atoms. Currently it uses half the  
shorter basis vector, while it should be half the longest cell diagonal  
(the demonstration is left as exercise ;-). You can get the new file from  
here:

http://qe-forge.org/scm/viewvc.php/*checkout*/espresso/Modules/constraints_module.f90?revision=1.53&root=q-e

please replace the old file (Modules/constraints_module.f90) and recompile  
the code. Don't forget to report if you find any problem.

cheers
