When I apply this to my 20100929 version of PCB, compilation fails:

This results in Error 2.



But I think I worked around my original problem: I managed to load all
new elements in the freshly compiled lesstif version and save it, after
which I can load the file in the old PCB version and edit it without
problems.

As far as the latest git version is concerned: as soon as I have some
time on my hands, I'll muck out the PC, create backups and install a
more recent Linux version -- and then compiling and installing new stuff
shouldn't be much of a problem any more.

Thanks again for all your help,

Best regards,

Richard Rasker
