It seems I missed that.  Where can I find more information about this 
change?  The only related entry I found in in the NEWS file in 1.8.x is:

* Net segments with at least two connections (including indirect
   connections via `netname=' attributes) are now drawn with arrowheads
   rather than box markers on dangling ends in `gschem' and printed
   output.

Is this the change you are referring to, and if so, how does it make box 
selection harder?  It has apparently been reverted in 1.9.0.
