Highly unlikely.  Any atoms participating in bonds or angles have their 
nonbonded interactions excluded.  Dihedrals (1-4 interactions) are usually 
included as normal or scaled nonbonded interactions, but occur at a distance 
usually within rlist, so the calculation of those interactions should not be 
affected by nstlist.

Can you describe more exactly the problem you're having?  There are a number of 
variables at play so it's hard to guess.
