Not exactly what I would classify as a "bug" but yes, it should be step, as 
there is no time in energy minimization.  But gmx energy has no way to know what 
kind of process was carried out without reading a .tpr file (which for almost 
all cases would be irrelevant) so the labeling remains generic.
