That sounds like a plan. The Farnell site says the pins are 18mm x 10mm,
which would make the diagonal distance from one positive pin to the negative
pin about 19mm. The sockets I have here seem to be about 21mm from pin to
pin, so maybe I can bend each one inward a millimeter and get it to fit in
the holes.
Thanks,

As far as battery holders go:
There actually are holders with a much smaller rim. They almost fit the
holes on the PCB (both old and new). Usually I bend one pin outward and
solder it flat onto the surface; however with the new PCB it might even be
feasible to bend both pins slightly inward and fit them through the holes.
