[phenixbb] generate r free flags in phenix.refine not obeying high resolution limit?

Hi Francis,

it is always the best to generate the free R flags for the whole dataset 
and this is what phenix.refine does (I will have to double-check, 
though). Because, for example, if you change your mind and later decide 
to use more data, you will run into trouble with generating free R flags 
for the rest of reflections for which you haven't done it in the beginning.

Also, phenix.refine generates free R that are evenly distributed over 
the resolution, making sure that relatively thin resolution bins receive 
enough of reflections (to assure correct ML estimations).

So, I don't see any problem here... Am I missing something?

Pavel.
