For four-point water models, the code builds in (on the fly) the extra point
position, based on the O and H positions. So, the same optimizations for
3-point models also apply to OPC and TIP4PEW.

I suppose the message should say something like "triangulated waters with
three real atoms" (or something similar). The output wording long predates
4-point water models.
