Hi Ed,

I've had this problem as well. It's the result of the very small R-free set
fraction. There is an error routine that catches really small R-free sets,
but 0.5% gets through and triggers ar problem. My workaround is to just use
a larger R-free set fraction (more than 1%).
The version number is actually an improvement: 6.2 was just the version of
CCP4. The program now has its own version number.  

Cheers,
Robbie
