You can probably get it to work, but it will be painful.  This is the sort of 
thing that GROMACS is admittedly not very good at doing, at least not easily.

Try http://www.charmm-gui.org/?doc=input/glycan instead.  It's designed to deal 
with complex glycosylation.  I can't remember if conversion to GROMACS format is 
included in the Glycan Reader yet, but if not, converting the topology shouldn't 
be that bad.
