I've accidentally left it out or had duplicated pinseq on pins,  
without effect on  unslotted symbols in printed circuit flows.

The following symbols in the distributed (gEDA/gnetlist version  
1.4.3.20081231) lack pinseq, but have pins:

2S2K3-1.sym
relay-1.sym
af_output_transformer-1.sym
if_trans_aircore-1.sym
loop_antenna-1.sym
loop_antenna-2.sym
osc_coil_aircore-1.sym
LSI11BUS-1.sym
DC331-1.sym
DS8641_1.sym

And all of the crazy IEC417 symbols (whose pins aren't real anyway).
