Your geometry minimally breaks Cs symmetry, and it seems like different
parts of the program do not handle these symmetrization thresholds 100% 
consistently.

Your input works if you replace the geometry with

instead of the z-matrix. That is the (symmetrized) geometry Molpro 
outputs at
the beginning of the output. If you want to run the (non-symmetric) original
z-matrix geometry, you can do so by putting gthresh,symtol=1e-9 at the
start of the output, which will suppress symmetrization in this case and do
the calculation without symmetry (it will take much longer then of course).
