I ran some others these are the results:
 
   Key Words %HF CP2K G09 diff (kJ/mol)  XC_GGA_XC_HCTH_407 0 -76.40895 
-76.40918 -0.6  XC_HYB_GGA_XC_B97_1 0.21 -76.39399 -76.39374 0.7  
XC_MGGA_C_M06_L 0 -67.68914   XC_MGGA_X_M06_L 0 -76.04416   XC_MGGA_C_M06_L 
XC_MGGA_X_M06_L 0 -76.43029 -76.41007 53.1  XC_HYB_MGGA_XC_MPWB1K 0.44 SCF 
crash -76.38142  
 
 
The MGGA seems to be causing the problems.
 
 
Thanks, Geoff.
