Sorry, I meant to reply to this yesterday.  The problem is that
several individual options in phenix.refine are incompatible with
twinned refinement - mostly map-related procedures like rotamer
fitting and real-space refinement.  Specifying non-standard map types
for output may also trigger this message.  I try to check for these
conflicts in the GUI but I don't have a complete list of which options
don't work.  (Torsion dynamics was on the list until recently, but the
recent nightly builds should fix that bug.)  Unfortunately, there
isn't any central sanity check in phenix.refine either.
