IFBOX never changes. It's a prmtop pointer (and sander/pmemd never
modifies the prmtop file).

I change it sometimes in ParmEd when deleting a periodic box (such as by
removing solvent and ions), but that's to make sure IFBOX is consistent
with what is expected by sander/pmemd... (Same thing with cpptraj --
"nobox" triggers a change in IFBOX when using "parmwrite")
