as I mentioned recently, metaGGA is sometimes nasty from a numerical
point of view. It doesn't look that serious to me.

this is not so small. Noncolinear calculations with constraints are
also rather nasty. Please have a look at the differences between
noncolin-constrain_atomic.out and noncolin-constrain_atomic.ref
and report suspicious differences
