I found another oddity.

With the recent upgrade to 3.7 I saw improved bitmap import
capability.  Good enough I can finally put the company logo on
the drawing. *smiles*

It looked good so I created a new library object that included
the bitmap image and used the object in a drawing.  I made
sure I saved the technology page as well as the drawing.

Next time I started xcircuit, it blinked on the screen,
disappeared, and the xterm reported "segmentation fault".  

I poked around and determined if I removed the line in the
.lps file for the bitmap, xcircuit would run.  And xcircuit has
no problem loading the drawing with the bitmap.  I tried changing
the path to the bitmap to an absolute path - still didn't
work.

So it seems the bitmap can only exist in the "user" library
associated with a particular drawing.  If the same object is
added to a "system" technology page, xcircuit won't start.

Bug?

Limitation?

Or user error?  *smiles*
