Bug Description

When a schematics file is appended using "File->Append Schematic Sheet" its symbols are not displayed/loaded until eeschema is restarted or the symbols properties dialog is opened and closed for each symbol.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open demo project 'pic_programmer' and remap symbols.
2. Create a hierarchical sheet 'test' in the root sheet and open it.
3. Use "File->Append Schematic Sheet" to append "pic_sockets.sch"
 -> all symbols are displayed as "??".

Pressing 'e' over a symbol to open the properties dialog and closing the dialog right afterwards will load the symbol.

Epic fail on my part. The append code still uses the old schematic parsing code. I will get this fixed as soon as possible.
