Hello,

Basically leap is comparing the orientation of two lists of
atoms to determine the correct torsion values (model.c,
dModelCalculateOrientation).
Probably your problem boils down to operator error; to localize the error
you could add this extra printing to chirality.c
*** 112,118 ****
            break;
      }
      if ( j >= 4 ) {
! DFATAL(( "No %s in aaOrig list\n",
               sContainerName(aaNew[i]) ));
      }
      /* Swap elements and flip sign */
--- 112,123 ----
            break;
      }
      if ( j >= 4 ) {
! VP0(( "ERROR: Comparing atoms %s, %s, %s, %s to atoms %s, %s, %s, %s\n",
! sContainerName(aaOrig[0]), sContainerName(aaOrig[1]),
! sContainerName(aaOrig[2]), sContainerName(aaOrig[3]),
! sContainerName(aaNew[0]), sContainerName(aaNew[1]),
! sContainerName(aaNew[2]), sContainerName(aaNew[3]) ));
! DFATAL(( "No atom %s in first list\n",
               sContainerName(aaNew[i]) ));
      }
      /* Swap elements and flip sign */

Alternatively or additionally you could build leap with debugging on.
I think all you have to do is change in src/leap/Imakefile
#define LeapDebugLib NO
to
#define LeapDebugLib YES

Good luck,
