Hi Tom and Orson,

After a few trials, I fixed my issues:
* sallen_key.sch demo has a bug: the text ".include diodes.lib" should be ".include 8051.lib".
  Of course, this is obvious, bot not easy to find at a first glance.
* I rebuilt libngspice-0.dll on my msys2 install, just copied this dll in kicad/bin dir (instead of
Orson'one) and I do not have the issue about init files (perhaps it is built with different options).
