timestamps that are fixed, since the timestamp update routine is
called from too many places, too many times. Instead created a
new cell definition flag indicating a fixed timestamp, which can
be set by "cellname timestamp" for an individual cell, or with
"gds datestamp" for cells read from a GDS file.
the timestamp is updated after reading in CIF or GDS, and managed to
get the timestamp dirty flag to remain clear after reading when
"gds datestamp" is used. This includes a modification of the timestamp
update routine that only updates timestamps on a single file if only a
single file is being written.

only at the time of running the command "load". But cells are generally
loaded only on an as-needed basis, so the dereferencing option must be
saved as a flag in the cell and honored whenever its subcells are expanded
or otherwise read at a later time.
rid of redundant port entries in subcircuits. There is still an outstanding
issue as to whether nodes and connections need to be recursively iterated
to the hierarchy bottom. The current fix corrected the test case. Also,
added a "-dereference" option to the "load" command to revert to the
original behavior of using only search paths from "addpath" when searching
for files to load.
development had been halted since it was first created back in April.
Version 8.2 is now the official development version, with the first
development push to create a Cairo graphics interface.
