Oh, yea, this might not work. I've never tried it. The problem is
probably that the relaxation dynamics is confusing the steering potential.
This is probably not going to be an easy thing to fix (the way I will
probably fix it for now is to tag this combination as unsupported and make
it quit).
I suggest using umbrella sampling instead, which should work fine.
Thanks for the report,
