I don't think it works this way, maybe somebody could confirm it.

When you load a PDB, coordinates are parsed and ConnectTheDots() generates 
bonds.
Then there is a function to clean up extra bonds that shouldn't be there, but I 
suspect 
that if you already filled all valences with these weird dual-bond hydrogens, 
there is no 
chance you're going to see the bonds you expect, no matter what the resdata.txt 
file contains.

You may want to test that particular structure after removing all hydrogens.

Also, if other prolines do not raise this issue, I would say that it's the 
structure 
that's problematic.

If you want to work with non optimal/distorted structures, you want to move 
away from PDB 
and use something different that defines an explicit connectivity table.
