Subject:	[geda-user] pcb board outline for inside cutting

I need to mill out a hole inside a board, as well as the standard board
outline.  I can put my cutting-inside outline on an arbitrary layer with
nothing else there and get a perfectly nice gerber, but it also contains
all the drill holes.  Is there a good way to get pcb to produce two
separate outline files, that don't have anything else in them?  (The
obvious workaround, delete the unwanted bits in gerbv, is for some reason
not working: I can't get it to select objects in order to delete them.  I
can do that in circuitcam, but as I only have access to that at work it's a
poor workaround.)

Thanks for any advice.
