This looks to me like the same problem as in http://www.molpro.net/pipermail/molpro-user/2009-July/003171.html 
  . If you have fully-patched source code for Molpro 2008.1, or the  
latest Mac binary, you should not see the problem; unfortunately the  
supplied linux binaries do not yet include the fix, but will soon.
