xgsch2pcb handles this all for you, and can also update new components into a running copy of PCB. (It drops them in a pile in the top corner).
I must try Peter's xgsch2pcb but I am a wee bit wary of dropping components onto the PCB. The pins have a nasty knack of sticking to existing traces and once moved drag the traces into a mess. I have two solutions, file/preferences/size and make the work area bigger than the PCB and drop em into the empty space or turn off the copper layers.
