In my hands shelxc/d/e pipeline as it is implemented in ccp4 is working 
perfectly.
After slowing structure yesterday using hkl2map I resolved it using ccp4 to 
have faster access to buccaneer or ARP/wARP.
Needless to say that I used data I have measured in the form of output.sca from 
SCALEPACK.
So it is probably really only converting of MTZ to SCA that induces problem.
