Does XDS (or xdsconv) not include the ISYM column?  In some files, we
get a combination of columns like this:

F SIGF DANO SIGDANO ISYM

which is the same thing, but the ISYM column indicates how the DANO is
applied to the Friedel mates, meaning that we can reconstruct the
original F+ and F-.  There's nothing wrong with using these data in
Phenix - without ISYM, however, the DANO is useless.
