Hi Elaine, 

I addressed the question to CCP4BB but il did not seem to interest anyone . 
I state it again : 

I wonder how much of an impact should there be on structure refinement, validation and, last but not least, molecular modeling, if we take into account the recent (2011) re-definition of the hydrogen bond made by the IUPAC. Ref:
"Elangannan Arunan, Gautam R. Desiraju, Roger A. Klein,
Joanna Sadlej, Steve Scheiner, Ibon Alkorta, David C. Clary,
Robert H. Crabtree, Joseph J. Dannenberg, Pavel Hobza,

and David J. Nesbitt
Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 83, No. 8, pp. 1619–1636, 2011.
doi:10.1351/PAC-REP-10-01-01

Defining the hydrogen bond: An account (IUPAC Technical Report)*" 

Tough job, isn't ? 

My guess is that Chimera should be involved .
