gEDA-user: refdes autonumbering and renumbering

I've been working on a schematic on and off for a little while, and I added 
the hooks for autonumbering reference designators to my ~/.gEDA/gschemrc 
file.

Autonumbering and renumbering both seem to work fine for one invocation of 
gschem. Then, if I save the schematic, close gschem, and reopen the 
schematic, the next component with that refdes prefix will have the same 
number as the last one in the schematic. That is, if I have three capacitors 
(C1, C2, C3) and I reopen the schematic and place three more, the new ones 
will be numbered C3, C4 and C5.

I'm not really good at reading scheme-- can someone do a sanity check and see 
if this is just an off-by-one bug in the code?

Also, if I have a heirarchical schematic, will the existing code scan the 
sub-sheets to avoid duplication of reference designators? (I'm using the 
source=subsheet.sch syntax.)

thanks,
