Only with the old editconf, and in any case it doesn't solve the problem
- I still get a segmentation fault.
Actually the solvent had residue numbers larger than those of the protein.

I forgot to mention that I get this segmentation fault with CHARMM and
OPLS, not with GROMOS or ENCAD FF. resind gives the number of water
starting from zero until the program crashes.
