I wasn't aware that mtzdump "displays the wrong resolution": I thought
I had fixed that problem years ago.  Are you looking in the right
place in the output?  The resolution values on the RESO keyword in the
header (use 'less' or a text editor on the MTZ file to see it, the
'header' is actually right at the end of the file - so it's really a
'trailer'!) refers to the resolution limits (d_max and d_min)
calculated from the hkl values in the file, regardless of the contents
of the data columns.  That has always been the case: mtzdump is only
reporting what's in the file header/trailer.  Then the table printed
out by mtzdump (see below for example) shows the d_max & d_min for
data in each column excluding NaNs (undefined values).  These could
well be different from the d_max & d_min in the header/trailer and
indeed from each other.

So in the example below the d_max & d_min for the hkl's is 64.829 &
1.4, and the values for each individual column, some of which are
different from these, are shown in the table.

Are you seeing something different from this, if so there's a bug
somewhere that we should fix?
