drc2 always will give you an error on totally unconnected pins unless
you connect them a nc-* symbol.

It's no more true. See ChangeLog-1.0 entry:
2006-07-14 Carlos Nieves Onega <cnieves@xxxxxxxxxx>

        * misc/nc-*.sym: Added graphical=1, device=DRC_Directive, 
          value=NoConnection attributes to the NC symbols.
          This change, and the directives support included into
gnetlist,
          fixed bug #1442910 and allows to use the nc-* symbols without
          shorting the nets to a new NoConnection net.

All NC symbols have now graphical=1, device=DRC_Directive,
value=NoConnection attributes. There is no No-Connect net.


Regards,

Carlos
