I believe the default in scalepack2mtz in ccp4i is Anomalous on.  That clearly explains your observations.
You should consider Ralf's point that the data might have been converted to mtz with separate Friedel pairs, even though it was scaled initially as not.

Dear Ralf,

I too have experienced this issue many times before.  My .mtz files were 
generated through the ccp4i "import merged data" tab (default 
parameters), after the data were processed with scalepack.  Letting 
phenix use the .sca file instead overcomes this but this is not an ideal 
situation for cross-compatibility between different programs.

Cheers

Rupert Russell
