This is probably a case of the PME problem that I solved recently.
Giacomo has a dodecahedron for box and uses PME. I will fix it in the
stable branch as well. For others listening: there is a bug in PME that
occurs sometimes, but *only* when using triclinic (i.e. not rectangular
boxes) and when you have molecules that are more than half the box in
size.

XTC errors occur usually when either the disk is full, or the system is
exploding.
