Thanks: fixed for the upcoming April release.

This is a harder issue. The behavior of savePdb has been around for a
long time, and we can neither remove the command (too many workflows use
it) nor easily address all the issues (although proposals for code fixes
are welcome.) I've added a warning note in the manual, pointing out the
tLeap emits "Amber" PDB files, which may not work in other applications.
I point people to the ambpdb program (based on cpptraj), which does a
much better job of meeting PDB standards.

I think Hai is addressing this issue.
