Initial Comment:

I downloaded the latest development code and built JMol - version 11.9.25_dev

The following crystal structure is not built correctly in JMol.  I will 
follow-up with further examples.

Message:
I'm not surprised -- this file contains no symmetry operator information.
All we have to go by is "H-M P2". But there are two settings of P2 -- one
with unique axis b and one with unique axis c. Since Jmol has nothing more
than "P2" to go with, one should not be surprised if it picks the undesired
axis. Loading this model using:

load t.cif {1 1 1} spacegroup "-x,y,-z"

or

load t.cif {1 1 1} spacegroup "P2:b"

solves the problem. 

But, tell me: Is it possible to know from the unit cell dimensions which
unique axis is correct? If so, I'll program that in.
