I forgot to mention that there cannot be a pin defined in the symbol file which has the same number at that used in the net=GND:x attribute. I'm not sure what will happen if there is, but I am sure that it is probably undefined. Actually, it's well defined as long as the net connected to the pin has no name. An unnamed net attached to the pin will connect to GND. That's how the "Power Rail" symbols work. However, gnetlist's behavior in case of a short circuit is not well defined, so conflicts between net= and netname= are are problem in general, not just in this case.
