This is a slightly unusual way of doing things. I _thought_ it should work,
but having checked, it is actually generating a bad netlist.

My Windows dual-boot has gEDA 1.6.1..... so this could be some bug which is
fixed since then. What version do you use?

unnamed_net2    TP1-1 CONN1-2
GND     CONN2-1 CONN1-3
Vcc     CONN2-3 CONN1-1
unnamed_net1    CONN2-2 CONN1-2


Notice how CONN1-2 appears in two distinct nets?



For how to achieve what you want... I think you should name the nets you
are taking between pages.

This can be done by attaching a "netname=...." attribute to the net you
want to connect on both pages. Don't repeat components between pages.

Note that your power rail symbols also "name" nets (it is how they work),
so wherever you use those symbols on multiple pages, they will connect to
the "GND" net and the "Vcc" net.
