Did you start from scratch or at least 10 step before? "laststep" vs.
"maindir" takes a couple of steps to show results. Anyhow, you need to
figure out why the distribution change so drastically in one step.
Another option could be to scale the update (postupd scale), so that the
IBI update does hit that hard. (see methanol-water/X_0.062/re as an example
on how to do that)

Ok, sure ensure that the pairs which are later covered by bonded
interaction  aren't contributing to rdfs. You can control this by setting
nexcl in grompp.mdp.
