Still no luck trying your suggestions. I didn't find anything too out
of the ordinary in the xml file ('shape' was what I supposed to save it
as, correct). I vaquely recall that there was an uncompress option
somewhere, but I couldn't find that.
At this point since diagrams A and B are essentially the same except
for some labels - I may resort to cping B to A and change the lables a
bit. Recall B seems OK....It is worth noting that is what I did (except
the other way around) to get into this problem.
Any other hints?

So I took your automake stuff and nuked the symlinks with the revs you sent and retried the build. Which worked much better but did eventally error out with something like the following...((actually this stuff is below)
Woops, forgot about the translations problem - actually, this is a really annoying one because I don't know how to fix it - I just type touch po/zh_TW.gmo to get past it. Does anyone else know how to fix this properly?? Maybe it should be submitted as a bug :-)
living on the edge I gave app/run_dia.sh a go and dia fired
up. And loaded one of diagrams (call it 'A') and that
looked/worked/printed fine. The other diagram ('B') had the
same problems as with 88.1. For kicks I loaded A back in
88.1 and that appears/works/prints fine ; but B misbehaves in
both 88.1 and 89.0.
I am thinking something is strange with the dia file.
Haven't spelunked in the XML yet...but may try that (I kinda
want the B diagram enuff to try this). I will note that the
'virtual canvas' with diagram B looks funny - by this I mean,
the rulers seem to have negative coordinates and the whole
canvas is HURGE. The A diagram still has negative ruler
coordinates but the canvas seems smaller.
With regard to the diagram B, I have found some diagrams stuffed beyond what dia can fix. Did you try loading it into 0.89, saving it and then reloading it?? If this doesn't work, export it as a .dia file and then troll through the source (with your favourite editor) searching for large numbers (+ and -), then manually delete the objects either in the xml (if you like a challenge) or in dia if you can work out which ones they are. Once I hand patched the coords for a couple of objects to get it to load - a lot of work, but my wife was happy.
Any further help/hints? BTW: with the compile 89.0 rev, I don't have any cools stuff like the network objects etc on my tool bar palete...
As for missing the network objects etc, did you rm the sheets/build-sheets.stamp file then do a make?? (the 'RE: Crash when opening file' reference). Hope this helps.
