Yeah. I don't have any [angles] sections in my charmm rtps because I rely
on pdb2gmx to generate them from the [bonds] in the .rtp and the [angletypes]
from ffbonded.itp

Yeah I was trying to make a guess as to the cause of the OP's problem.
To me, the safest way to parameterize a new residue is to focus on putting
in the correct additions to ffbonded.itp and ffnonbonded.itp to guarantee 
that reruns of pdb2gmx will generate the correct topology instead of trying 
to fix an existing .top. For CHARMM at least, I believe the .rtp entry for 
the new residue should only have [atoms] [bonds] and [impropers].
