I'm trying to understand this case better. In what situation would you name your initial file foo.pcb when running pcb-rnd instead of foo.lht knowing your Makefile expects foo.lht for lihata? Or are you trying to create a geda/pcb file using pcb-rnd? (Why?) And if so, isn't "save as" a better/safer option if you explicitly want to make sure you start a new file in an alien format (instead of depending on the guessing mechanism, whatever it does or however reliably it works)?
