What version of Gromacs is this?  Does g_rdf simply stop, or does it produce an 
error?  Does it produce a segmentation fault?

Also note that the -xy option is much more useful for systems involving surfaces 
or membranes; I doubt it will be very informative for a system that tumbles in 3 
dimensions.  Notwithstanding, if there's a bug it should be fixed, but it may 
not be critical.
