[Bug 126601] Please sync pcb 20070208 from Debian Unstable

Public bug reported:

Request to Sync PCB 20070208 from Debian Unstable

Imporant portions of Changelog is below and the full changelog can also
be found at http://pcb.sourceforge.net/news.html#20070208

1.  Add polygon clipping code. This is a big change to how polygons are
handled. The new code now removes islands and correctly identifies open
circuits caused by a trace fully cutting through a polygon. In addition,
the RS-274-X output is now simpler and works with some board houses that
use older non-conforming sofware. Different styles for thermal reliefs
are also now supported as part of the polygon clipper code.

2.  Convert the m4 libraries to newlib libraries as part of building a
distfile. The m4 libraries are still considered the sources and as such
are still distributed but this eliminates the need for m4 at runtime for
footprints.

3.  Make pcb work under non-cygwin windows

4.  Fix various bugs which would cause a crash

More nice addons have been done in this new upstream release. Please
evaluate the request
