I converted the above patch to a git-patch for others to play with.
First impressions after patching, building and running pcb with this new feature:
1) I'm happy Jerome took the time and effort to code this long outstanding feature request (IIRC in the Sourceforge era).
2) The IPC-D-356 netlist export functionality is not implemented as a HID-exporter, nor as a plug-in for pcb.
3) Furthermore, when tested with the LED2 example, I can't find a netlist file generated by the exporter anywhere, nor is a file-chooser dialog opened to be able to chose a (different) name for the netlist file.
I poke around some more to see what can be done about 1) and 2).
