Let's convert future to now. As a temporary workaround I've incremented 
the default to 38 in pcb-rnd (in r7461).

The final fix will be different: I am planning to make the 
number-of-layers (and layer groups) dynamic soon (or at least this year); 
then the (theoretical) limit would be sizeof(long), effectively 2^31 if 
you want to make your design compatible with pcb-rnd running on 32 bit 
machines.

Anyway, Erich, great job on the kicad import!
