Where did you get the symbols from?
Sometimes when importing from other sources things can go a  bit haywire
and duplicate pins can get created.

Check the lib files very carefully, as it has been known for pins to get
duplicated in the lib. (you will not see this in the graphical editor, as
everything will be on top of each other, you need to look at the lib file
itself) It's a text file, and with the number of errors that you are
getting, if this is the problem it will be pretty obvious!

Have a look at kipy, a set of python tools that can do some extra
checking and it will pick up the duplicate pin entry issue it it exists.
