I have more closely looked the compilation logs and the files used for 
the test. There is nothing particular to say about the compilation (no 
error, no warning). note that I'm using glibc 2.3.4 compiled on a Linux 
2.4.20 system. The error seems to be due to the -DMOL1 define in 
grompp.mdp of the rb1 test. When I replace it by -DBONDS (as in the 
rb125 test), the test is successful. What the -DMOL1 statement means? I 
though you can only use -DFLEXIBLE or -DPOSRES as defines in a mdp file. 
I had a look in the 3.3.2 manual, but found nothing about it.
