[phenixbb] zero B-factors

Hello,

all it needs to resolve this particular problem is not use an ancient 
Phenix version (that has that feature).

Edna's problem was solved after switching from 1.8_1069 (which I 
consider ancient) to a more recent (in fact latest) version.

It adds some time to the refinement cycles, but I always have lots of other things to do while I'm waiting for the job to finish.
