You left out the minimization inputs, but I was able to figure out what is
going on:
The box dimensions for the wat.crd and ala2wat.crd files are different.
This means that all components of the energy of the two systems will differ,
including changes in electrostatic energies. If you change the coordinate
file to have the same box dimensions, the EELEC component of DV/DL is zero, as
it should be.
(Also, the water coordinates are different in the two files, but sander tries
to compensate for this. It doesn't seem to check the box sizes in the two
prmtop files.)

Finishes even more quickly if, as I did, you change nstlim to 10 and ntpr to
1. When you are searching for problems, don't run a calculation that takes
hours to complete!
...good luck....dac
