Ok, I just spotted the cause: It was a matter of paths. gnetlist accepts and 
finds a schematic with a valid path othere than the current working 
directory. This processes just fine with a flat project. But gnetlist 
assumes sub sheet symbols relative to the current working directory rather 
than relative to the path of the main schematic. Consequently, the gnetlist 
front end fails to find the bits and pieces of the hierarchy if the main 
schematic was given with a path.

IMHO, gnetlist should extract the base path of the hierarchy from the 
schematics argument rather than just assuming the current working directory.
Any objections?
