No.

That's irrelevant. Only non-mdrun tools care about the contents of 
$GMXLIB or local force field files. The point of GROMPP is that it is 
the GROMacs Pre-Processor that does all such for mdrun.

When you get some advice, it's good politics to be seen to follow those 
up (or reject with reasons) before casting about wildly with other 
theories :-) You don't want the people giving free advice feeling like 
you're wasting their time!
