[Wannier] Checking info from wannier.nnkp file-Something wrong!

quick one - 1.88808383092209 seems like 1/0.529177 - so there must be a 
mess up
somewhere between the angstrom and bohr conversion? a b and c are meant 
to be
in angstrom, but maybe you could double check.

(BTW - I noted that both qe and wannier90 use as defaults CODATA 2006).
