Since the two sets of contraction coefficients are related by a common factor
(1.68896), I
would say it's nothing more than normalization of the contracted function -
certainly the contraction from
EMSL or 631.gbs doesn't look normalized to me. This is usually never a problem
since the program
will generally take care of these things.
