Semiempirical vdW corrections do not compute a vdW potential. For that you
need nonlocal DFT functionals, activated by setting variable input_dft to
some vdW-aware functional (e.g. vdW-DF, vdW-DF2). The nonlocal correction
to the exchange-correlation potential is computed inside routine "nlc" but
it is added to other terms of the XC potential and is not available
anywhere else in the code.
