I have already done that and cannot reproduce your problem, neither in
serial nor in parallel execution (at least with no linear-algebra
parallelization, option "-nd 1"). If you are using an unmodified version of
QE, and if you are not running in some extravagant way, there is something
wrong with your compiler, libraries, run-time environment, don't know what,
but there is no division by zero in QE.
