Unfortunately CIFs produced with Crystallographica 
http://www.crystallographica.co.uk/ appear to have optional underscores in the 
Hall symbol which cause 10.9.80 to fail silently eg:

_symmetry_space_group_name_Hall '-P_2'

This underscore is equivalent to a space according to the CIF spec:
http://www.iucr.org/iucr-top/cif/.checking/symmetry_checklist.html
and is only needed if the symbol is not enclosed in quotes.

In general, if the Hall space group symbol is not recognised perhaps Jmol 
should fall back on the H-M symbol. And if explicit operators are given these 
should be preferred.

Unfortunately Crystallographica also uses a CIF non-standard end-of-file line:
_eof
which also causes 10.9.80 to fail ( _eof should simply be ignored - it is 
flagged as a Warning by Encifer).
