Dear Lorenzo
Sorry, I'm not familiar with the new crystal_sg coordinates, but it seems to me 
that there is something strange in the structure. I suggest that you 
"fill the unit cell" with all the equivalent atoms (Avogadro or Vesta can do it 
for you) and check the results to be sure that you are calculating 
exactly what you want. If pw.x fills the unit cell and write the resulting alat 
coordinates of all atoms (as usual), then you may directly check them 
with xcrysden. You might try to run the job with the full structure and simple 
"crystal" coordinates. Maybe something goes wrong when the code try to 
fill the unit cell in the crystal_sg case. Anyway I suppose that there is no 
computational gain in using the crystal_sg coordinates ("no free lunch" 
:-)).
