Things are comming along but .... please look at this mapfile dump

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Joseph,

I seem to remember a bug a while back about symbols defined in the
mapfile not always working that the you needed to move them in to a
separate symbol file that you reference in the mapfile.

Also, I believe that "symbol 0" is a predefined mapserver symbol that is
the same as circle.

Somebody please correct this if the above assumptions are wrong.
