This was an oversight.. Here is a patch for forcecp.f:

*** forcecp.f 2004/02/17 17:19:07 7.13
--- forcecp.f 2005/03/17 15:57:23
***************
*** 315,321 ****
     
     ! ----- CALCULATE THE CAP FORCE IF NECESSARY -----
     
! if(ifcap > 0) call capwat(natom,x,f)
        vir(1) = vir(1)+0.5d0*molvir(1,1)
        vir(2) = vir(2)+0.5d0*molvir(2,2)
        vir(3) = vir(3)+0.5d0*molvir(3,3)

     ! ----- CALCULATE THE CAP FORCE IF NECESSARY -----
     
! if(ifcap > 0) then
! call capwat(natom,x,f,ecap)
! ene(20) = ene(20) + ecap
! end if
        vir(1) = vir(1)+0.5d0*molvir(1,1)
        vir(2) = vir(2)+0.5d0*molvir(2,2)
        vir(3) = vir(3)+0.5d0*molvir(3,3)

I'll post this to the web site as well. Thanks for the report!

[Note that this change only affects the printed energies in the output file;
any trajectories run without this patch should still be correct, although
temperature regulation might be very slightly affected.]
