The information on the extending simulations page does not seem to agree
with what you just said above. It says :
If you wish/need to change .mdp file options, then either

grompp -f new.mdp -c old.tpr -o new.tpr -t old.cpt
mdrun -s new.tpr
or

grompp -f new.mdp -c old.tpr -o new.tpr
mdrun -s new.tpr -cpi old.cpt
should work.

I am simply changing the mdp file options so the difference in output
frequency shouldn't actually cause mdrun to abort.

I am not planning on using most of the Gromacs analysis tools either way, so
hopefully this won't be too much of a problem.
