Yes, the patch I wrote and attached to my previous e-mail works (that's why 
there's a big [PATCH] in the subject line).

Without it, the .pcb is corrupted each time PCB writes to it; with it I can 
save and load my PCB happily.  I don't have time to search the archives right 
now, I'm afraid.

Cheers,

Peter
