Dear all,

I ran a calculation (input file attached) which used to work fine with 
CPMD 3.5 & 3.4, but with CPMD 3.7 it crashed at this point (the platform 
was a Cray T3E):

 ***    RWFOPT|   CURRENT HEAP LENGTH             3989 KWords ***
LSCR=   178337 2*NHGB+IBRESET*(2*NHGB+2*IBRES=*********

LSCR=   178491 2*NHGB+IBRESET*(2*NHGB+2*IBRES=*********

(plus more lines of the same message)

I found that it is the keyword 'LANCZOS DIAGONALIZATION' 
(or 'LANCZOS PARAMETERS') which causes the trouble. The problem
has also occured with other systems when I tried to use the
Lanczos diagonalisation.

Here is the input file:

Any fixes for this problem? 

Thanks for help.
