First of all: regtests are there to test basic feature of the code!  
They do not
necessarily reflect the structure of any kind of input you may use  
for production.
They have only two scopes: (1) tests some functionalities; (2) be  
fast while testing.

I was not creating personally those regtests but the structure of the  
COORD section
is clear:
http://cp2k.berlios.de/manual/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/SUBSYS/COORD.html

ATOM_KIND   X   Y   Z    MOLNAME        ALL THE SHIT YOU WANT (WHICH  
IS NOT EVEN READ)

so the first 4 columns are mandatory.
MOLNAME is optional (if you don't put it, it is automatically  
generated).
ALL THE SHIT YOU WANT (is also optional)

you guess ?

did you try to remove those numbers to see if the "calculation is  
affected" ?
if not,  please, try and convince yourself!
CP2K has no documentation and you will find many problems like this one.
If you don't have a bit of curiosity and braveness, if you don't test  
things
personally or from time to time you don't even want to look into the  
source
code.. I guess you will have a quite hard life. Maybe you should think
about going for a code much more well documented.

Best,
Teo
