I've no idea what might have caused the issue, but there is nothing
deliberate I can think of which should alter the reading of schematics.

I've not been able to find a 20070626 release, did you mean 20070526?

I've taken a look through the log of 140 commits between those releases,
and see nothing which is likely to cause this.

Try opening the schematic with the version of gschem + libgeda you had
before. I'd imagine the schematic will look the same.

Were the components you now find offset and rotated ones you'd edited?
