See my posting, & various replies, a few days ago regarding "PDBSET bug
with unusual (but legal) atom names"

I think this (that is, Pat's) sort of annoyance will be increasingly
frequent until the treatment of PDB files by the RCSB, REFMAC (program &
libraries), and the rest of the CCP4 suite becomes uniform (which,
gladly I can report, folks such as Garib, Eugene Krissinel, Francois
Remacle, Kim Hendrick, and others ARE aware and are working to fix!).
