 I'm confused here. I used the "Add Global Label" button to add the labels.
Double-clicking the label also opens the global label properties box. I'm
not sure where the hierarchical labels are; maybe I'm just unfamiliar with
Kicad.

I didn't pick up the symbol for the debug connector from SVN. Dave, can you
make sure this is added to the repository?

Agreed. Fixed.

Let me know if you spot anything else.

Thanks,
