Those probably should be pins not mounting holes. The datasheet states that
the tabs are snap-in solder tails that hold the connector in place for
wavesoldering (which will solder the pins and the tabs).

You may want to chnge the flag from 0x09 to 0x01 and add two pins to your
gschem symbol (for the case connection).
