Ok, this is _all_ permutations of certain three letter combos. May be
a little bit over the top for general distribution. Many combinations
do not correspond to any component in the real world. Having them in 
the lib just invites errors. 

If I recall correctly, someone has called the slotting mechanism of
gschem a "general pin swap mechanism". Imagine the slotting transplanted
into PCB footprints. This could provide a way to specify which combinations 
exist. 
In the context of packages, the package might indicate, which slot
to use. As with all attributes, the user could override per instance.
