Probably 1.7.1, but there are many disadvantages to this - in
particular the geometry isn't going to be nearly as good.

I suspect it's simply not a scenario that the authors of Reduce
envisioned when they wrote it. There may be a straightforward
modification of Reduce that would fix the problem, but I think a more
optimal solution would be to remove the dependency in phenix.refine
entirely. I receive a lot of other bug reports coming from the same
bottleneck (but I suspect for very different reasons).
