[Ifeffit] Problem with Hephaestus at Ca L-edges

I wanted to work out the edge-jump ratio between the L3 and L2 edges of Ca using Hephaestus. I ran into two problems:
1. The ratio implied by what it says for the unit-edge-step thickness does not agree with that derived by computing the absorption (cm^2/gm) above and below each edge and
dividing the difference (L3+ - L3-)/(L2+ - L2-).
2. The results differ wildly depending on which resource I use:
L3-.1 L3+.1 L2-.1 L2+.1 (L1+ - L1-)/(L2+ - L2-)
Elam 4759.796 27837.796 27478.018 38434.277 2.106375908
Chantler 4322.6 6547.121 32827.61 35436.543 0.852655473
Cromer-Leiberman 4288.524 33471.375 32786.294 47072.991 2.042659055
The Henke table doesn't yield an L2 edge jump at all, while the Shaltout yields the same results as Cromer-Leiberman. Which one should I trust and why?
This is old-style H. (V0.18), not Demeter.
