Update to 20080202 snapshot.  Changes include:

- Added a footprin preview in the library window
- Added gnome/kde desktop integration files (app and mime icons, and
  .desktop file)
- Added i18n support
- Updated dbus support
- Fix a number of GCC 4 compiler warnings
- Make the gtk gui more robust against malformed menu resource files
- Added checking for duplicate hot key definitions in the menu
  resource file in the gtk gui.
- Improved support for building on win32.
- Removed automake/autoconf generated files from cvs
- Fixed some parallel make bugs
- Fixed some scrolling/panning bugs in the gtk gui.
- Added the ability to load edif netlists
- Closed a number of bugs in the sourceforge tracker
- Fix a bg in the x-y output files where the y values were mirrored
  and offset
- Add XRENDER support to the lesstif HID to support layer transparency
- Fix some polygon dicer bugs
- Fix a handful of bugs in the png export HID
- Avoid vias snapping to pins and moving elements snapping to their
  own pins/pads
- Fix a number of undo bugs
- Fix printer calibration
- Add global puller
- Various improvements to the postscript export HID
- Improve all the GetXY prompts in the menu resource files
- Improved the pin/via report
- Improved pin/pad vs grid snapping
- Various footprint improvements
  o fixed some drill sizes
  o fixed some silk sizes
  o Added a handful of QFP family footprints
  o Converted the QFP family to the hi-res format

- Added keystone, C&K, Nichicon, and Optek footprint libraries
- Add attribute editor to the GTK HID
- Add a fileselect() function to the HID spec
- Fix ps output with drill helper on
- Add a visual indicater when elements are locked
- Corrections to the manual
- BOM can export in mm as well as mil
- Fix a ps output bug with arcs
- Fix some memory leaks found with Coverity
- Added autoconf test for buggy versions of m4
- Fixed some footprint drill sizes
- Add user customizable menus for the gtk HID.  The gtk HID now is
  capable of reading the same format menu resource files as the
  lesstif HID.  This represents significant rework of the menu code
  and menu callback code.
- Added Center() action
- Store the file format in the .pcb file.  This will let pcb know when
  presented with a file which is too new.  The code for checking the
  format was present in the prior snapshot.
- Fix DRC checking of square pads to square pads
- Added window panning/cursor warping
- Add the ability to directly load a footprint from a file as if it
  were a complete layout.
- Add a Popup() action
- Add polygon clipping code.  This is a big change to how polygons are
  handled.

  The new code now removes islands and correctly identifies open
  circuits caused by a trace fully cutting through a polygon.  In
  addition, the RS-274-X output is now simpler and works with some
  board houses that use older non-conforming sofware.  Different
  styles for thermal reliefs are also now supported as part of the
  polygon clipper code.
- Add support for plugins
- Many improvements to the autorouter.
- Various improvements to the trace optimizer.
- Add a fontmode for editing pcb fonts
- Add progress() hook to HID structure
- Fix a bug with non-functional windows on some window managers
  commonly found on OS-X
- Add support for controlling pcb via dbus
- Fix various bugs which would cause a crash
- Add --scale for postscript scaling
- Intercept window manager delete events with the GTK gui
- Scan the .pcb file for a FileVersion value.  This is not written out
  yet but will be in future versions.
- Warn if non-manhattan lines are trying to become pads.
- Allow no-solder paste pads to support fiducials
- Report in mm or mils as selected by user
- Allow reordering of layers
- add some more QFN packages
- fix building with sun studio c compiler
- Made a pcb installation be relocatable.
- Convert the m4 libraries to newlib libraries as part of building a
  distfile.  The m4 libraries are still considered the sources and as
  such are still distributed but this eliminates the need for m4 at
  runtime for footprints.
- Got rid of the pcb wrapper script around pcb-bin.
- Remove some old footprints of questionable naming, accuracy, or usefulness.
- Get the autosave/backup code working on all GUI's
- Fix some drill size rounding in the reports
- Changed the backup file name to be derived from the .pcb file name
- Added a command line option for DrawGrid
- Fix logic for adding new ratlines
- Fix gtk grid when board is flipped
- Add "find" and "rip-up" buttons to the netlist window
- Draw plated holes when exporting
- Fix some bugs when converting selection to element
- Fix build on cygwin
- Enhance the win32/build_pcb script used to generate a non-cygwin
  windows installer.
- Make pcb work under non-cygwin windows

Update to 20060414.  Changes include:

** 20060414

- This is the first snapshot of the new HID version of PCB.  HID, which
  stands for Human Interface Device is the abstraction created by
  DJ Delorie which seperates the core PCB code from the graphical user
  interface.  In this release, two GUI HID's are supported, gtk and lesstif.
  In addition, there are HID exporters for postscript and encapsulated
  postscript, RS-274-X (gerber), bill of materials, centroid file, and
  png/gif/jpeg.  This represents a major restructuring of the code and
  many months of work.

- PCB's actions (the commands which drive the core of the program and
  may be directly accessed by the user) now have the documentation in-line
