Please give full descriptions the first time. I posted a noob question 
on the AMBER mailing list a few months back, and would never have gotten 
the problem solved except that I included some details that I thought 
were irrelevant, and someone spotted my problem. We've all got better 
things to do than play question-and-answer. You might have invented some 
atom names that pdb2gmx doesn't know how to cope with - but you haven't 
said whether your apparently erronously generated position restraints 
are specific to your new residue or not. Unfortunately you haven't 
shared your atom names after I suggested the atom names were probably 
the problem, and I'm not going to make guesses. There's various 
databases in $GMXLIB/share/top for various force fields, but I don't 
know your GROMACS version either...

I don't think looking at the code will lead to a solution.
