I had a trace that was missing a via.  It's probably been ~2 years, so my
memory (just like the connection) may be incomplete.

Non-DRC related: I've had grief importing netlists into PCB.  I can't use the
recommended direct PCB gschem-schematic-import method due to some special
schematic post-processing (mostly eliminating off-board parts/wiring, which I
want to have on the schematic), so I have to use the netlist-import.  Again,
it's been a while so it's hard to be specific.
