Hi,

I just built the latest kicad using the kicad-instal.sh script on Linux 
Mint 16 64-bit, and when I open my schematics, half of the symbols are 
now missing.

I verified that the parts are in the libraries by viewing them in the 
module manager and by placing some new ones on the schematic.  It looks 
like the Chip Name on all the broken symbols is in all caps, but in the 
module manager they are lower case or mixed case - leading me to think 
that now the names are case sensitive?  I thought the names were made 
all upper case when creating symbols - but I don't remember for sure now.

I just checked on another system with version BZR 4631 and the same file 
opens properly, so something got broken since then.

Thanks,
Moses
