It's hard to even follow what you've done.  If GROMACS couldn't find 
FFTW when installing, even that should have failed.  It appears you've 
compiled FFTW statically whereas GROMACS expected shared objects.  
Revisit how you compiled everything, and perhaps start over so you do 
things consistently.
