In the Perl spirit of "there's more than one way to do it", here's one
that I successfully used on a board a few years back.

It's for AMP part 787780 (available from Digi-Key), and it was drawn
in pcb-1.6.3 (so it uses the old resolution and syntax; 20050609 still
reads it properly):

Element(0x00000000 "CONNECTOR_4" "CONN1" "USB_port" 5570 930 -190 50 0
100 0x00000000)
(
	Pin(0 0 65 30 65 35 "1" "1" 0x00000101)
	Pin(100 0 65 30 65 35 "2" "2" 0x00000001)
	Pin(100 -80 65 30 65 35 "3" "3" 0x00000001)
	Pin(0 -80 65 30 65 35 "4" "4" 0x00000001)
	Pin(-190 -180 125 30 125 90 "5" "5" 0x00000001)
	Pin(290 -180 125 30 125 90 "6" "6" 0x00000001)
	ElementLine (-185 -585 285 -585 10)
	ElementLine (285 -585 285 35 10)
	ElementLine (285 35 -185 35 10)
	ElementLine (-185 35 -185 -585 10)
	)

I just used connector4-1.sym, and manually connected pins 5 and 6 to
the shield plane.
