I think the confusion is because the context in my patch already mentions 
another feature; in global.h

    unsigned char q;     /* square geometry flag */
    unsigned char int_conn_grp;

are added for the special shaped pins and int_conn_grp is the internal 
connection group number. I don't think the patches I extract this simple 
way can be applied as-is, they probably need manual assistance - but all 
my whitespace and naming are off, so if you are going to use them you'll 
need to rewrite them anyway.

Tibor
