[phenixbb] errors when disabling Rfree

  Hi Chen,

the crash is not good, I will fix it - it is definitely a bug specific 
to twin-refinement (since I know we have a test that runs refinement 
without using test reflections but using different target).

The maps we are typically look at are 2mFo-DFc and mFo-DFc. It is 
essential that the coefficients m and D are estimated using proper 
unbiased test reflections.

So, following Peter's suggestion: the best fix for you now is to use 
free-R set of reflections in refinement.

Pavel.
