[phenixbb] Bulk solvent

Hi César,

this step is important. Bulk solvent modeling is based on mask 
calculation and since during refinement of coordinates the atoms shift 
the mask gets invalidated. This is why we do a final bulk solvent 
correction step at the very last step of refinement just before the 
final statistics is reported. So I'm puzzled about why you want to turn 
it off. If it causes any problem, it's much better to find out the 
primary reason for it rather than turn bulk solvent correction. Could 
you please give more details?

If you do "main.bulk_solvent_and_scale=false" phenix.refine will not do 
bulk solvent correction and anisotropic scaling at all which is bad.

Pavel.
