I've fixed the snapping bugs DJ mentioned to me (which started to
irritate me when I was working on a layout last week!).

There is a bug I've encountered.. certainly in the PCB+GL branch, but
I'm not sure about git HEAD, where PCB will crash when using the "F"
short-cut (lookup connection).

So far, my valgrind and gdb foo have not been very helpful, as I've not
managed to indentify exact steps to reproduce the issue.

I saw it at least two or three times at work the other day though, so I
think the right strategy is to try and work under gdb or valgrind on
that particular design, and see if that sheds any light on the issue.

Best wishes,

Peter
