Sure! It should be ignored!

It is the right way to handle unconnected pins. However, I prefer to do
the netname checking in the function drc2:check-pintypes-of-nets, as it
is done with the check drc2:check-if-net-is-driven.

I have commited the changes into CVS. You can update your local copy.

Thanks again!
