I don't think so. There are no substantial differences in the
last version wrt the previous one in this case. I do not see 
anything anomalous in Eduardo's results, by the way. The
results with constrained and unconstrained magnetizations
are the same => the constrained-magnetization result is the
ground state. The "two Fermi energies" of the constrained 
case need not to be exactly the same as the (single)
Fermi energy of the unconstrained case, as long as the
occupancies for spin-up and spin-down are the same in the
two cases.
