Sorry bad description of the problem by me.  First off I meant PINLABEL to
stand for the name I give the pin (e.g. OUT_5V), and the error message is
actually 'pin 1' and not pin1.

The error crops up during optimize in the .pcb file I use for the subcircuit.
Once the subcircuit layout is imported into PCB and the refdeses changed
(via a script), the error goes away, presumably because the hierarchical
design flow of between gschem and PCB understands the situation and knows
not to worry about those pins.

The only difference I notice between your approach and mine is that you
dont set pinlabel for the interface pins in the subcircuit schematic, which
I doubt would make a difference (the fact that you aren't trying to make a
.pcb from the subcircuit alone seems more likely to be the cause).
