VSXC DFT-functional didn't work

Gets Around
Hi, nwchem developers.

I've try to use VSXC (an Voorhis and Scuseria’s kinetic-energy-dependent exchange–correlation) DFT-functional,

I find in http://nwchemgit.github.io/index.php/Release66:Density_Functional_Theory_for_Molecules#Combi...

Table of available Exchange (X) and Correlation (C) functionals. GGA is the Generalized Gradient Approximation, and Meta refers to Meta-GGAs. The column 2nd refers to second derivatives of the energy with respect to nuclear position.

there are three functionals
Keyword 	X 	C 	GGA 	Meta 	Hybr. 	2nd 	Ref.
vsxc     				* 	* 	N 	[39]
xvsxc     	* 			* 		N 	[39]
cvsxc    		* 		* 		N 	[39]
