Ohh, it's not a good idea to copy all the cvs .fp files to a common dir,
there might be name clashes and files migth overwritten.

$ find /Net/cvs/cvs.gedasymbols.org/www/user/ -type f -name \*.fp | sed -e 's|.*/||' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | tail
      4 DIP6.fp
      4 SO8.fp
      5 0603.fp
      5 DIP14.fp
      5 DIP16.fp
      5 DIP18.fp
      5 DIP20.fp
      5 DIP8.fp
      6 0805.fp
      6 SOT23.fp
$

Well, there is six files named SOT23.fp.

I have not been able to tell pcb in a config file what directories to 
use, the command line workd though. Did you try:

 pcb --lib-newlib your_folder

I don't know.
