As I said before, you have to actually re-compile and install the git version of 
Gromacs to see any effect.  Further, simply replacing a file likely will not 
work due to a multitude of code changes that have taken place in other source files.

Yes, there was a bug introduced in version 4.5.  Please either install the git 
version properly, use xpm2ps included in version 4.0.7, or wait for the release 
of version 4.5.2.
