[Scip] VRP example

Hi Tuomo,

I just tried to solve one of the instances of the VRP example with SCIP
and CLP (1.8.2 and 1.10.0) and discovered the same observation as you.

It looks like that there is a bug in the interface to CLP. I have a look
at it. Thanks, for pointing that out.

In case of using SoPlex or Cplex as LP-solver everything works as it should.

Therefore, I suggest that you switch to CPLEX (if you have a license) or
SoPlex (is also free for academics).

Best Stefan

PS: The changes in the makefile should not matter.
