[AMBER] PMEMD10 - energy summation bug?

Hello Amber Devs!

Please find below the energy output from nearly identical forcefields (the one
for sander misses all the special charmm/chamber flags) using the same
coordinates.

EPtot is 37075.6031 in both cases, but I believe this incorrect for PMEMD10,
because here an additional term (IMP > 0) should be added. One can see that
DIHED is different for the two outputs, so I guess the IMP energy term is
missing when summing all energy terms for EPtot.


AMBER10 (SANDER10 - hacked CHAMBER converted forcefield)

 NSTEP = 0 TIME(PS) = 0.000 TEMP(K) = 299.21 PRESS =
0.0
 Etot = 61156.7558 EKtot = 24081.1527 EPtot =
37075.6031
 BOND = 450.8583 ANGLE = 9008.8580 DIHED =
4102.0287
 1-4 NB = 2276.6115 1-4 EEL = 113363.7474 VDWAALS =
-9065.8493
 EELEC = -83060.6515 EHBOND = 0.0000 RESTRAINT =
0.0000
 Ewald error estimate: 0.1592E-04
