how did you generate your pdb/psf file. please keep in mind,
that you cannot expect that if your input works with one package
that it'll work with a different one just as well. many are
"broken" in very unique ways. it also matters as what you read
in files (there is UPSF and PSF for example).

however, it is also possible, that your compiler miscompiled the
code. i remember seeing similar error messages when i was on a
machine that had PGI 6.2.x compilers and those went away when they
were upgraded to 7.0.2. i'm now always compiling a g95 based
version on top of the system default compilers, so that if there
are input errors, i can do a cross check with an unrelated compiler.

you may want to override the atom "name" in the pdb file with
the atom "type" from the .psf file. to do this with VMD:

set mol [mol new "input.psf"]
mol addfile $mol "input.pdb"
set sel [atomselect $mol all]
$sel set name [$sel get type]
$sel writepdb "input-new.pdb"

hope that helps,
