I decided to take a peak at Dan's project file.  The first group is a
xanes record (Group->Identify group's record type).  As Adam
previously mentioned, Athena gets confused about data files sometimes
and misidentifies the data type.  There is a good reason that the
XANES data type exists, but if Athena misidentifies EXAFS data and the
user lets it slip, then writing chi(k) data will not be possible.

I have no problem writing non-zero chi(k) data with the remaining
groups.  Of course, I am using 0.8.037 rather than 0.8.034.  I don't
yet have my windows computer set up, so I cannot repeat my test under
Windows yet.  I don't remember where we left the Windows versions
before my vacation, but if the possibility of upgrading exists, it
might help.
