I am working with crystals with apparent I422 space group but it may be 
actually I4. Twinning analysis shows twinning fraction of 0.46. I tried to 
detwin the anomalous data in CCP4. Just to check the files were read and 
written properly, I wrote the detwinned data in ascii. The numbers look strange 
and needless to say the anomalous Patterson doesn't look good (The Patterson 
with untwinned data shows single strong site in both I4 and I422, but I 
couldn't solve the structure in either space group).

There are lot of negative intesities in the output. 
   0   0  72   -565.57   1621.53    643.51   1700.95
   0   0  74  -2454.32   1778.62   3489.49   1845.18
   0   0  76   1161.54   1598.13   -657.16   1668.87
   0   0  78   1036.44   1492.05   -934.67   1488.42

If I write out Fs, the reflections with negative intensities have 0 for F(+) 
and value of the previous reflection for F(-). 
   0   0  72    0.00    0.00  244.28  203.06
   0   0  74    0.00    0.00  586.96  153.30
   0   0  76  311.74  194.46  586.96  153.30
   0   0  78  218.16  192.88  586.96  153.30

Did anyone face a similar problem? I am using version 6.0 of CCP4. The older
