Hi,

i would say that 0.3 eV difference for some systems is something we have 
to accept.
What could be worth trying is to see how much the latest setups change 
the results.
You can see how to generate and use them:

The latest parameters for Mn, O, and H are:

$ python ${g} -p -l spdfg -w -f RPBE -s H -P 1s,s,p -r 1.0 -F 1.5,0.20
$ python ${g} -p -l spdfg -w -f RPBE -s O -P 2s,s,2p,p,d,d -0 f -r 1.5 -F 1.5,0.20
$ python ${g} -p -l spdfg -w -f RPBE -s Mn -P 4s,s,4p,p,3d,d -r 2.8 -F 1,0

Best regards,

Marcin
