Problem Solved - Short Summary
---
Dear all,
First of all, a big thank you to everyone who devoted their precious time to
help figure this out!
Good news, Refmac (tested with v.5.7.0032) does handle alternate sugar
conformations correctly.

Oops, sorry, I used
CCP4 6.3: Refmac_5.7.0032 version 5.7.0032 : 05/09/12
(confirmed by the log file)
so I am using the current version and the problem still persists.
Thanks!

Hi Markus,
I had a brief look at the structure fragment that you had included in your
mail, and I don't think that you really observe these two conformations.
Stereochemistry of the A conformation looks fine, but the sugar in the
alternate B conformation is not an NAG but an NDG (i.e. it has an
