	I know why the program crashes now.  It is most certainly a bug
in gschem.  The short term solution is remove the extra small pin that
hidden underneath pin 15 in PIC16F873.  The long term solution is a little
bit more complicated (but needs to happen to, since the user should never
be able to feed gschem bad data to cause a segfault).  I'll keep working
on the long term solution.

[ Basically what was happening was gschem was create a "connection"
  (between two pins) that was within a component and that is something
  I didn't expect ever to happen. ]
