Bug Description

I noticed it working with yesterdays nightly so I installed todays (Windows 64).

I start with clear PC (Roaming\kicad deleted).
I copied my L.pretty lib onto this PC.
I run KiCad.
I run Footprint Editor - see 01.png - isn't it too long to load footprints 2 minutes?
I changed to work in F11 (default is F9 - reported yesterday).
I added my L.pretty to library list.
I opened my footprint 7870 - see 02.png.
I have added one line at CrtYd - 03.png.
I pressed Ctrl+S - 04.png
I have selected 2012 footprint and then 7870 - 05.png - line disapeared.

Note the point at 0,0 coordinates. There are probably all thinks (lines and arcs) I have added in footprint history.

Footprint history.
1. Start from copying other one.
2. Deleted all lines and made these not typical PADs.
3. Added Fab picture - you see.
4. Noticed that text 7870 is at Fab layer and I wont it at CrtYd layer.
5. Changed its layer.
6. Went to footprint used as source to make the same change.
7. Get back - left arc from Fab disapeared - first mark something is going wrong.
8. Noticed that point in middle - you see it.
9. Double clicked it at found it is my lost arc but start, and end set to 0,0.
10. Edited start and end to right values - this arc no more disapeared.
11. Added whole CrtYd and Silk picture (4 lines and 4 arcs at each, and some help lines (deleted later) during it for arcs centers).
12. After Ctrl+S and look into another footprint and get back all what I have added disapered except one line to the left. This one was not the first I draw.
13. Supposed that I forgot to press Ctrl+S then do that all once more with the same affect.
14. Tried to finish that footprint some more times thinking that the problem may be is in sequence of my actions (thinking such probably because after save I see still everything OK so supposed something is going wrong later). Now I suppose that footprint is damaged during save.

In zip there is my footprint as with other footprints I didn't noticed that problem so I think something in it fires the problem.
