I found the bug which causes this:
parmchk2 -f prepi -s gaff2 -i mol.prepi -o molX.frcmod -a Y
gives 0 ho non-bonded
parmchk2 -f prepi -s 2 -i mol.prepi -o molX.frcmod -a Y
gives non-zero non-bonded!

parmchk2 docs say that gaff2 and 2 should be equivalent for -s but they are
not!

                -s ff parm set, it is suppressed by "-p" option
                      1 or gaff: gaff (the default)
                      2 or gaff2: gaff2
                      3 or parm99: parm99
                      4 or parm10: parm10
                      5 or lipid14: lipid14
