Thanks for that Andrea, I already patched to the 5.03 some months ago.  
The changes in the ef_shift.90 were
new to me. I changed the lines, but the results remain the same. I can  
reproduce the large fermi energy shifts
with the QE4.31 version, too.

I think thats true, as it is the phonon-system with the largest c/a- 
ratio up to now for me. I am gonna to test a little bit
around this topic.

Nevertheless, I am still open for new suggestions. I really appreciate  
the ideas of this list.

thanks, Nicki
