Sorry for answering with a question, but why do you want to check
orthogonality (gazillions of other things much less obvious could in
principle be flawed) ?
For the checking orthogonality, one might simply add some code to nmode.c,
which is quite well documented.
Since the hessian is symmetric (mass weighted or not)
its eigenvectors *must* be orthogonal (for different
eigenvalues only). Eigenvectors for degenerate
(more then one numerically equal) eigenvalues can be made
orthogonal and should be no problem anyway.
good luck
Andreas
