Thanks. gmxcheck is quite helpful. Here is part of the output. It turns out the difference is mainly in the force field parameters, which indicates the top file provided may not be the one used to produce the tpr file. Perhaps it is best to contact the authors, unless the difference is due to certain changes between gmx 4.0.x and gmx 4.6.3.
