Anything that's not found in spce.itp is looked up from ffbonded.itp or 
ffnonbonded.itp. I can't think of a single case where the charges in 
ffnonbonded.itp are used, so there's probably no reason to expect them 
to be correct. You should satisfy yourself that GROMACS is implementing 
the correct form of SPC/E found in the primary literature. However, 
since CHARMM was not parameterized with SPC/E, there probably is no 
particular correct form to use.
