The issue may be that you have put spaces around the equal sign: this
is not allowed in attribute definitions.

Also have you 'hand-edited' the symbol and put only that statement into
the symbol? Attributes are actually special text objects and as such
should be something like in that your symbol file:
    T 350 2500 5 10 0 0 0 0 1
    net=GND:17
instead of a single line.

If you still have an error, please post the exact error message
and your symbol file.

HTH,
