I've checked 'gsch2pcb test2.prj' output for both 1.6.2 and unstable
head, and there's no sign of any line continuation characters in either
test2-new.net or test2-new.pcb... this is proving hard to reproduce. :-(

Title:
  PCB shuts down after opening file with empty Connect("")

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Incomplete
Status in PCB: Printed Circuit Board CAD package:
  New

Bug description:
  After editing a schematic in gschem and using gsch2pcb to create a new netlist, a space was left at the end of a net after a line continuation character. This led to an empty connect statement in the net after import to the PCB file [Connect("")] and after this PCB would immediately shut down on opening the file without leaving any error record, even when started from a command line. The PCB file is OK after removing the connect statement.
  The net with the space was the last entry in the netlist file, and before the schematic was edited, that entry had run onto the next line after a continuation character but was now shorter.
