The command I had used (for both 4.0.7 and 4.5.4) are:

pdb2gmx -f 1EXR.pdb -o 1EXR.gro -water spc -ignh -p 1EXR.top -i 1EXR.itp
editconf -f 1EXR.gro -o 1EXR_box.gro -c -d 1.4 -bt cubic

genbox -cp 1EXR_box.gro -cs spc216.gro -o 1EXR_solv.gro -p 1EXR.top -seed 5

grompp -f em.mdp -c 1EXR_solv.gro -p 1EXR.top -o ions.tpr
genion -s ions.tpr -o 1EXR_solv_ions.gro -p 1EXR.top -pname NA+ -nname CL- -np 17 -seed 66

grompp -f em.mdp -c 1EXR_solv_ions.gro -p 1EXR.top -o em.tpr

mpirun mdrun_d_mpi -v -s em.tpr -x 1EXR_em.xtc -e 1EXR_em.edr -g 1EXR_em.log -c 1EXR_em.gro

grompp -f pr.mdp -c 1EXR_em.gro -p 1EXR.top -o pr.tpr

mpirun mdrun_d_mpi -v -stepout 1000 -s pr.tpr -x 1EXR_pr.xtc -e 1EXR_pr.edr -g 1EXR_pr.log -o 1EXR_pr.trr -c 1EXR_pr.gro

grompp -f md_start.mdp -c 1EXR_pr.gro -p 1EXR.top -o md.tpr

mpirun mdrun_d_mpi -v -stepout 10000 -s md.tpr -x 1EXR_md.xtc -e 1EXR_md.edr -g 1EXR_md.log -o 1EXR_md.trr -c 1EXR_md.gro

So you're doing solvated EM, then position-restrained NPT MD, then NPT. Sounds to me like you might have a bad initial contact that can't relax under solvated EM, nor under PR-NPT, and is getting numerically lucky in 4.0.7 and not under 4.5.4. If so, then careful inspection of the start of the 4.0.7 run might show this. Vacuo EM of the solute might help if the problem is intra-solute.
