I fully agree: we get lots of user problem reports about mm_pbsa. Of course,
it is synchronizing a complex set of calculations, but there seem to be way
to many points of failure. The scripts should probably doing a lot more
error-checking and providing useful error messages when something goes wrong.
This should be something that perl make relatively easy to do: search all the
outputs for phrases that generally signify successful conclusion, (or flag
a common problem), and stop with a deatiled report of what is wrong, and why.

And, or course, having a "make test.mm_pbsa" target in $AMBERHOME/test
is also a very desirable option.

Not that I am volunteering here :-) Holger: can you work with Scott
to organize what is needed here?

...thx...dac
