Are you sure that the two Hamiltonians are really different? Try a one-step
run with clambda=0, and with clambda=1 to make sure you are really getting
different energies. (The behavior you report, not geting DV/DL at each
step, but still getting a summary, with all values zero, is consistent
with not having any energy difference between the two Hamiltonians.)
