Hi Jim and all,

I've applied your patch on my local gsymcheck. Great.

I've looked into the symbols of 74 and it seems there are different 
types of errors:

1. errors in the symbols that should be repaired
  I'll repair them soon

2. not connected pins
  Can they be marked without drawing them using the NoConnection
  net attribute like in misc/nc-* symbols?
  for example: net=NoConnection:2,...

3. symbols that are already marked as broken
  These are broken symbols I marked some time ago.
  Should we delete these symbols or redraw them with different pin
  positions?

best regards
Werner
