If what you want is different from what Mother Nature wants (or,  
rather from the caricature of Mother Nature's willings given by DFT/ 
GGA/etc.) the only way is to use magnetic constraints. They used to be  
implemented. Don't know what the current situation of the  
implemenattion is. You can try without constraints to start with ... SB
