I rewrote readCOMPnPIN() to sidestep strptime(). And renamed PLANE to
COPPER_PLANE. Does it build for you now?

Thanks. The bridge I am bulding to specctra will bring tremendous
value to Kicad, because it annexes all the value in the 3 or more

The lexer and parsers would make good examples in a computer science
course somewhere.
