Hi all,

in the 20140316 release of mainline this bug is still present: 
ANYOBJECTFIELDS has the ID field as long int, but create.c counts IDs of 
new objects in an int.

(This won't cause problems on the usual systems (with >=32 bit ints), 
but the C standard permits int to be 16 bits wide in which case create.c 
would start reusing IDs after 32767 objects. In the same time there seems 
to be no drawback using long int in create.c)

I propose using long int ID in create.c. Fixed in pcb-rnd in r2938.

Regards,

Igor2
