To have two symbols with one footprint, the two symbols must have the
same *refdes*.  That's the key by which symbols are merged.  The two
symbols should not have overlapping pin numbers, though.

Also, beware - don't end your refdes with a lower case letter.  PCB
ignores those (it thinks they're slot id's).
