dear Guntran,

It could be a small bug in the BFGS algorithm, or a compiler error or a  
bug in some algebra library... it's very difficult to tell and probably  
almost impossible to reproduce. I would just take the last optimized  
coordinates and bfgs thrust radius and continue (i.e. restart by hand)  
 from there.

If it happens again and/or regularly please report so we have a look at it.

best regards
