It would probably be useful to compile with debugging support (CFLAGS=-g) and 
run pdb2gmx through a debugger like gdb.  That way you can track down exactly 
what's happening.

That might be worth a try, but it would also be useful to grab the latest 
release-4-5-patches to see if this is the same issue as 
http://lists.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2011-April/060685.html or a 
different one.

The readdir_r() issue hasn't been fixed yet (since bug 739 is still open - 
http://redmine.gromacs.org/issues/739), but at least working with the latest 
development version might provide some clues if there's something else that's 
been fixed along the way.
