[phenixbb] Autobuild at 5A resolution

Thanks. The problem is that it is a big complex with many chains and I think
that giving a sequence to the program will only confuse it. That is why I
wanted to use phenix.find_helices_strand which does not require sequence but
as I understand is not part of Autobuild (am I wrong ?).

Peter.
