Helping getting geda sponsored

[Hans de Goede]

Update:

I've asked my student to look at this and the packages work as 
advertised, there is a bug left and right, but thats more of an upstream 
case, his own manually compiled version has exact the same symptoms.

When I find the time I'll start reviewing all the geda parts (why so many?).

Regards,

Hans
