[Wannier] a little problem with pwscf 3.2.1?

[Arash A Mostofi]

Dear Tadashi

I'm slightly confused: the eigenvalues have always (ie, since the original 
incarnation of pw2wannier90 in December 2005) been written by pw2wannier90 
as:

   write (iun_band,'(2i5,f18.12)') ibnd1, ikevc, et(ibnd,ik)*rytoev

(ie, without any reference to weights, wg). This is easily verified by 
checking the espresso cvs repository.

Consequently, Wannier90 has always read the eigenvalues as:

    read(eig_unit,*,err=106,end=106) i,j,eigval(n,k)

as I've verified by checking our Wannier90 cvs repository.

Can you remember from where you got your copy of the Wannier90 source? Was 
it from the www.wannier.org or from someone who may have made some 
modifications for his/her own purposes? In any case, the change you've 
made is correct.

Best regards

Arash
