Hi,
you should see the message
  *** WARNING in pw/ps_wavelet_methods.F:236 :: Density non-zero on the ***
  *** edges of the unit cell: wrong results in WAVELET solver  

To use the wavelet poisson solver you must centre the 'molecule' in the 
cell and make sure that there is ~5A vacuum space everywhere so that the 
electron density decays away. Otherwise you will get spurious results.
