The cause of the problem is the dashes in the filename of the footprint. If the OP had not used multiple dashes there would not have been a problem. After I figured out I forgot about it and I should have filed a bug instead. Gsch2pcb produces a garbled pcb file if there are dashes inside a symbol filename. Attached is a sample project that does produce a garbled pcb file (line 57) on my system. Yes, I know, electronically it isn't a very good design :-).
