Subject: [PATCH] growing into genocided form

     <Someone> recently reported that after lieutenants had been genocided,
he saw a sergeant drink a potion of gain level and then vanish, leaving
behind its gear but no corpse.  The message about growing into a lieutenant
and subsequently dropping dead would only be given if the monster could
be sensed via telepathy, not when it occurred in plain sight.  I'm not
absolutely sure that this was unintentional, since sensing the dying
monster's mind might be giving additional information about what was
happening.  But there was no comment stating that and I think such behavior
violates the principal of least surprise, so seeing it happen will now give
the message too.
