You are limited to 256 energy groups with or without using -rerun. If you need 
more, then perhaps you should consider some other simulation software that is 
better suited to this task. With GROMACS, you could use an environment variable 
to force the use of the generic C kernels, and inside that kernel use printf to 
write out the energy for each interaction. This will be horribly slow, and will 
be vastly simpler if not attempted in parallel.
