Problems with diode, lm337 and opamp symbols

[Erik Keever]

There are two diode symbols in geda with opposite directions, however they mark the same pins as anode/cathode; Revised diode-3.sym is attached.

The LM337 negative regulator symbol assumes the same pinout as LM317 positive regulator; Correct lm337-1.sym is pasted due to there being only 1 attachment.

opamp-1.sym and opamp-2.sym both have no pins assigned beyond the default numbering 1-5. If aop-std is supposed to be the single opamp, it should be so marked; If they are to stay, they should be indicated as not being the amp-on-board symbols. In all cases, the positive and negative power rails are _not_ marked, which is treachery waiting to happen if someone flips the symbol to have - on top as is common for negative gain circuits.

In the directory file:///usr/share/gEDA/sym/diode/:

diode-1.sym (Cathode =pin 2)
diode-2.sym (Cathode =pin 2)
diode-3.sym (Cathode =pin 1)

After some searching, I found that some mfg's mark the Anode as Pin 1 but in many others, it the Cathode
In PCB, the footprint diode_lay 300.fp marks the cathode as pin 1. Glad I examined the PCB layout before and caught this before sending a run into production as I am reading in many places that Pin 1 is always Cathode. I can see where diode-1.sym and diode-3.sym are opposites to work around this but perhaps the pins be shown to help avoid confusion for users who may be unaware of these differences.
