Be sure to also check ff11: as Carlos indicated, there are also new atom types
defined there.

I should let Tom chime in here, but this sounds like a change that would need
to be tested pretty broadly on DNA and RNA structures before being
incorporated into our "recommended" nucleic acid force fields. One would want
to be sure that a "better" local angle didn't indirectly degrade other
desirable properties of the force field as a whole.
