Summary: footprint mapping ignores dash in footprint name

Initial Comment:
I had a schematic that called for a "SOT23-6" footprint. I also created a footprint for it. However, gsch2pcb resolved and use a system defined footprint of "SOT23" instead of using mine. As soon as I changed the footprint to "SOT23x6", and changed the name of the footprint file accordingly, then everything worked fine. However, I also have other footprints with a dash (minus symbol) in their names, and yet there is no problem resolving them. I am suspecting the footprint name matching only works up to a minus symbol.
