From a bug report, if reading a cursed scroll of genocide created only
one monster it would give the plural message "Sent in some <monsters>."
Now it will say "Sent in a(n) <monster>." in such case. (The grammar is
accurate even if you can't see what happened; that situation is unusual
enough that I'm not going to worry about giving information away.)
From a bug report, flashing yourself
with a camera while in gremlin form blinded as with any other form, but
didn't inflict any damage the way that flashing a monster gremlin does.
This fixes that, and also makes light from wand/scroll/spell that hits
you-as-gremlin or monster gremlins do 1d5 damage too. It happens even
if the target is already in a lit spot, but doesn't continue afterwards:
simply being in a lit spot doesn't cause any damage, nor does lamp light.
Simplify many of the intrinsics macros from
#define xxx_resistance (Hxxx || Exxx || resists_xxx(&youmonst))
down to
#define xxx_resistance (Hxxx || Exxx)
by setting or clearing an extra bit in Hxxx during polymorph so that the
resists_xxx() check becomes implicit.
Unfornately there were lots of places in the code that treat Hxxx
as a timeout number--primarily for Stunned, Confused, and Hallucination;
Stunned happens to be one of the revised macros--rather than as a bit
mask, so this patch needed a lot more changes than originally antipated.
Something I've had in mind for a long time and finally gotten around
to implementing: when you fill in the last pit or hole of a sokoban level,
it's considered to be completed so luck penalties for unsokobanish things
(breaking a boulder, dropping everything and squeezing onto a boulder's
spot, reading a scroll of earth) stop being assessed and most Sokoban-
specific movement restrictions (against pushing boulders diagonally,
squeezing diagonally between boulders, floating over a pit or hole without
falling in, digging of new holes by monsters) are lifted. Teleporting,
level teleporting, and phasing through walls are still prohibited when in
the sokoban branch of the dungeon. (Keeping the non-phasing one in place
prevents taking a shortcut to the final prize in order to bypass the
treasure zoo monsters.)
This adds level.flags.sokoban_rules, defines Sokoban macro to access
it, and replaces most In_sokoban(&u.uz) tests to check it instead. It
gets set when a sokoban level is pre-mapped at the end of level creation,
and if it is set then whenever a trap is deleted, the flag gets cleared
if there are no more pits or holes present on the level.
Apparently I lied yesterday when I said that patch was the last
polyself one. This has been on my agenda for a long time: when dragon
scale mail merges with your skin during polymorph into the corresponding
dragon, have it revert from mail to scales. Its enchantment stays the
same when reverting. So after returning to your original form, using
enchant armor to convert it into scale mail again will eventually risk
its destruction due to over-enchanting. (Cursed scroll of enchant armor,
spell of drain life, or being hit by a disenchanter can be used to reduce
its enchantment back to a safe-to-enchnat value. Or cancellation if
you're desperate. I think those all work on all colors of dragon scales
despite the assorted magical properties that scales confer.)
From a bug report, when reading an unknown
scroll which turns out to be teleportation, if you happened to land on
another scroll of teleportation it wouldn't be discovered yet, even
though you ought to know that type of scroll by then. Fixing it required
moving handling of that scroll into the teleport code, since discovery
depends upon where you arrive and by then it's too late for seffects() to
do anything that affects feedback for any objects you land on.
Also fixes a post-3.4.3 bug where seffects() was making decisions
based on Teleport_control without being aware that Stunned now negates it
during teleportation.
The dungeon_overview bits in the rm structure were being
clobbered by a run-length encoding save/restore because
they weren't taken into consideration.
This patch pulls that data out of the rm structure completely.
It also adjusts the run-length encoding checks to take the
candig bit into consideration and adds a comment to rm.h
reminding people to make run-length encoding adjustments
in save.c for any new bits that get added.
From the newsgroup:
As you read the scroll, it disappears.
The scroll erupts in a tower of flame!
Your spellbook of force bolt catches fire and burns!
[...]
Your potion of paralysis boils and explodes!
Something seems to be holding you.
Do you want your possessions idenified?
This character survived the burning and boiling objects then succumbed
to the initial flame explosion.
A fatal explosion calls done() without any explanation. Or rather,
it dated to the time where it would immediately follow "the scroll erupts
in flame" (or "you are caught in <some kind of> explosion") without the
chance for intervening messages. Then when item destruction was moved
sooner (for bones file purposes), message sequencing was left dangling.
This patch adds a new "it was fatal" message in front of done().
A while back there was a change in how the initial shape for a
shapechanging monster gets chosen during monster creation, and a side-
effect of that lets/makes you choose the shape when #monpolycontrol is
enabled. But ^G was overriding your choice by forcing the shapechanger
to start out looking like the type of monster that you specified (to ^G,
not to subsequent #monpolycontrol prompting), hence always in its natural
shape. The intent for ^G was that if asked for a unique monster but got
a doppelganger instead, it would initially look like the requested unique
monster. Post-3.4.3 code, so no fixes entry needed.
There was an issue reported where save files between different
versions of a manufacturer's compiler were incompatible because the time_t
ubirthday field was changed from 32 bits to 64 bits.
32 bit time_t implementations will break at 19:14:07 on January 18, 2038.
64 bit time_t implementations will break at 23:59:59 on December 31, 3000.
This removes the dependency on the size of time_t from the save file.
The ubirthday field is no longer embedded in struct you.
This also adds two general purpose routines to hacklib.c, one to convert a time
value to a 14 character char representation and the other to convert that
back to time_t. Those are used by the save/restore routines.
This is a savefile breaking change, so editlevel in patchlevel.h was
incremented.
From a bug report, reading a scroll
of mail violates illiterate conduct and he requests that it not do so.
I didn't go that far, since unlike needing to read the Book of the Dead
to be able to finish the game, reading scrolls of mail is completely
voluntary and someone attempting voluntary challanges can choose not to
do it. Instead, this issues a prompt to require confirmation if reading
such a scroll will be the first violation of that conduct. Ordinary
players can answer no and then use '!' to read mail from a shell. I'm not
sure what'll happen to players on public servers who aren't given access
to a shell. Usually they wouldn't be able to get mail either, so more
elaborate servers like the one at nethack.alt.org which allow players to
use mail to communicate with each other will have to come up with their
own solution (perhaps by providing a mail-reader-only shell).
While testing something, I noticed that my last remaining discovery
would never be forgotten. The formula
count = ((count * percent) + 50) / 100
always yields 0 with count==1 and percent==25 (the value used for mind
flayer attacks). Not likely to come up in actual play very often....
Reported--more or less--by <email deleted>:
chargeable rings don't show up as likely candidates in the "what do you
want to charge?" prompt. They're supposed to be there once the type has
been discovered but it was using the wrong field so basing that on whether
the player had assigned a name to the type instead. (Picking a chargeable
ring's letter even though it wasn't listed did work correctly though.)
One of the complaints included in the Dec'04 report from <email deleted> was that spell of charm monster doesn't give
any feedback. This makes that spell, and scroll of taming, always give a
message. And the scroll will become discovered if a visible or sensed
monster gets converted from hostile or peaceful to tame, or from hostile
to peaceful.
Scroll of taming/spell of charm monster didn't hit steed when hero
is mounted; now it does. I don't know whether that matters though. You
can saddle a non-tame monster, but you can't ride one even in wizard mode.
However, I'm not sure whether a tame steed you're already riding can
become untame, let alone if it can do so without throwing you. If latter
is possible then re-taming while still mounted has now become feasible.
Move the code for determining monster class from user's input string
out of do_class_genocide() and into new routine name_to_monclass(). I'm
planning to use it when name_to_mon fails to match anything for controlled
polymorph (not ready for prime time yet).
Also, avoid getting stuck in a loop if hangup occurs while prompting
player for class of monster to genocide. ESC, whether deliberate or fake
input after hangup, will now be the same as specifying "none", throwing
away the genocide opportunity.
Noticed while testing crysknives; a post-3.4.3 change (not present in
the branch code) introduced a bug that prevented scrolls of enchant weapon
from being used up properly when read.
Wizard mode's ^G lets you specify "tame <foo>", "peaceful <foo>", or
"hostile <foo>" to override the created monster's default disposition.
Since it also lets you override the restriction against creating unique
monsters and various other special ones like shopkeepers (a post-3.4.3
change), it became possible to produce tame versions of monsters that
ordinarily are impossible to tame. That's pretty iffy even when it only
applies to debugging, so switch from internal tameness conversion to use
of tamedog() to get the non-tameable cases handled. (Minor side-effect:
full moon might prevent a request for "tame dog" from starting out tame.)
Also, for <N>^G, give up before the specified count is reached if
creation fails when creating multiple copies of a specific type of monster,
on the assumption that the level has become filled up. (When the type is
random, keep trying in case you subsequently get something different which
could survive on water or inside solid rock.)
This is an overhaul to the NetHack drawing mechanism.
- eliminates the need to have separate lists in drawing.c
for the things and their associated explanations by grouping
those thing together on the same inializer in a struct.
- replaces all of these options: IBMgraphics, DECgraphics, MACgraphics,
graphics, monsters, objects, boulder, traps, effects
- drawing.c contains only the set of NetHack standard symbols for
the main game and a set of NetHack standard symbols for the
roguelevel.
- introduces a symbols file that contains named sets of
symbols that can be loaded at run time making it extensible
for situations like multinational code pages like those reported
by <Someone>, without hardcoding additional sets into the game code.
- symbols file uses names for the symbols, so offsets will not break
when new things are introduced into the game, the way the older
config file uchar load routines did.
- symbols file only contains exceptions to the standard NetHack
set, not entire sets so they are much less verbose than all of
the g_FILLER() entries that were previously in drawing.c
- 'symset' and 'roguesymset' config file options for
preselecting a symbol set from the file called 'symbols'
at startup time. The name of the symbols file is not under the
users control, only the symbol set name desired from within the
symbols file is.
- 'symset' config file option loads a desired symbol set for
everything but the rogue level.
- 'roguesymset' config file option loads a desired symbol set
for the rogue level.
- 'SYMBOLS' config file option allows the user to specify replacement
symbols on a per symbol basis. You can specify as many or as few symbols
as you wish. The symbols are identified by a name:value pair, and line
continuation is supported. Multiple symbol assignments can be made on
the same line if each name:value pair is separated by a comma.
For example:
SYMBOLS = S_bars:\xf0, S_tree: \xf1, S_room:\xfa \
S_fountain:\xf4 \
S_boulder:0
- 'symbols' file has the following structure:
start: DECgraphics
Handling: DEC
S_vwall: \xf8 # meta-x, vertical rule
S_hwall: \xf1 # meta-q, horizontal rule
finish
start: IBMgraphics
Handling: IBM
S_vwall: \xb3 # meta-3, vertical rule
S_hwall: \xc4 # meta-D, horizontal rule
finish
- 'symbols' file added to the source tree in the dat directory
- Port Makefiles/scripts will need to be adjusted to move them into
HACKDIR destination
Add Hojita Discordia's Dungeon Map overview as

Dungeon Map Overview Patch for Nethack 3.4.3
Version 3
=============================================================================
Changelist:
v3: Changed #level to #annotate to avoid #levelchange collision. Fixed
handling of elemental planes and astral plane (oops). Changed
formatting to be slightly closer to print_dungeon()'s. Should be
"final" version for 3.4.3.
v2: Added tracking of trees. Changed ctrl-m command to ctrl-o. Portals
displayed as "sealed" instead of "closed".
v1: First release.
(Note: all versions are mutually save compatible.)
=============================================================================
This patch creates a dungeon map overview that is recorded as the player
explores the dungeon. I was tired of returning to a game a few days later
and having no idea what the dungeon looked like. Trying to name pieces
of armor with shorthand didn't work so well as an intermediate solution
either, especially around nymphs.
It can be assumed that this map is in the mind of the hero and thus
can't be stolen, can be read when blind, or when buried, or when the hero
doesn't have any hands, or eyes, or hands free, or...etc. On the other hand,
this implies that the hero doesn't remember all of the details ("a fountain",
"some fountains", "many fountains") and that the map is subject to amnesia
when applicable.
This overview tracks fountains, altars, stores, temples, sinks, thrones,
trees, and dungeon branches. It attempts to not spoil the player nor
reveal more information than the hero knows. For this reason, it only
tracks dungeon features found in the guidebook and dungeon branches.
This patch breaks save file compatibility. Sorry.
Added commands
=============================================================================
#overview (ctrl-o, if not in wizard mode) - displays overview
#annotate (ctrl-n, if using numpad) - names current level
Example Output From #overview
=============================================================================
The Dungeons of Doom: levels 1 to level 15
Level 1:
A fountain
Level 3: (My stash.)
An altar, some fountains
Stairs down to The Gnomish Mines
Level 7:
Many fountains
Level 8:
Stairs up to Sokoban, level 7
Level 15:
A general store
Sealed portal to The Quest
The Gnomish Mines: levels 4 to level 7
Level 7: <- You are here
Many stores, some fountains, a temple
More Details
=============================================================================
The overview shows only levels that have anything interesting to display and
doesn't show branches that don't have any interesting levels.
To avoid the map revealing more information than the hero knows, the overview
only displays things that the hero has seen or touched. (If the hero
blinds herself, levitates above a known fountain, and obliterates it with a
wand of digging, the overview will still say that there is a fountain.)
This is done, sadly, by adding 6 bits to the rm struct to track the last
known dungeon type. On the other hand, this change could potentially allow
a window port to do something like drawing an item and a fountain on the same
square.
Things That Could Be Better And Maybe Some Feedback Would Help
=============================================================================
"<- You Are Here" is pretty goofy
-...but an indicator of some sort is nice.
=============================================================================
Many thanks to all the kind folks on r.g.r.n. who had very good feedback
about this patch, in particular L (for the trees), <Someone> Papaganou (for the
#annotate suggestion and some formatting feedback), and <Someone> (for the suggestion
of just overriding ctrl-o instead of using the very broken ctrl-m.)
=============================================================================
20060311. Hojita Discordia. (My usenet email is bogus. Sorry.)
move oattached and oname and other things that vary
the size of the obj structure into a separate
non-adjacent oextra structure, similar to what has
already been done for mextra. The obj structure
itself becomes a fixed size.
New macros:
#define ONAME(o) ((o)->oextra->oname)
#define OMID(o) ((o)->oextra->omid)
#define OMONST(o) ((o)->oextra->omonst)
#define OLONG(o) ((o)->oextra->olong)
#define OMAILCMD(o) ((o)->oextra->omailcmd)
#define has_oname(o) ((o)->oextra && ONAME(o))
#define has_omid(o) ((o)->oextra && OMID(o))
#define has_omonst(o) ((o)->oextra && OMONST(o))
#define has_olong(o) ((o)->oextra && OLONG(o))
#define has_omailcmd(o) ((o)->oextra && OMAILCMD(o))
changed macros:
has_name(mon) becomes has_mname(mon) to correspond.
The CVS repository was tagged with
NETHACK_PRE_OEXTRA
before commiting these, and
tagged with
NETHACK_POST_OEXTRA
immediately after. The diff
between those two tags is this oextra patch.
The associated mail daemon changes to use an oextra
structure instead of a hidden command located in the
name after the terminating NUL, have not been tried
or tested.
- restore intended behaviour of kill_genocided_monsters().
It has been incorrect since the chameleon overhaul in June 2004.
- eliminate CHAM_ORDINARY and use NON_PM instead.
The recently revised scroll of charging left out making it become
discovered. When fixing that I decided to remove all the early returns
from seffects(), so that its logic is easier--at least for me--to follow.
I think the return values of seffects(), chwepon(), and the various
xxx_detect() routines are backwards (True denotes failure, False indicates
success), but they're all consistent with each other so I left those alone.

Implement the following suggestion by <email deleted>
- Reading a scroll of light while confused should
create a hostile yellow light (black light if cursed).
It only creates the light monster effect 1 out of 5 times.
My recent patch included a typo in a pline() call which broke compile,
and much worse, was accessing scroll of identify after using it up. Cache
scroll->otyp, scroll->blessed, and scroll->cursed instead of re-re-ordering
the identify scroll/spell code.
Make a not-very-robust fix for the report from <email deleted> about
being told a scoll disappears as you read it, then for the case of cursed
remove curse being told that the scroll disintegrates. He missed similar
case for scroll of fire erupting into flames after it had disappeared.
This suppresses the "disappears" part of the scroll reading message for
those two cases, but won't be very reliable if other scroll messages
referring to the scroll itself get introduced in the future. [Several
paths through scroll of fire won't report that it burns, and now it doesn't
give the disappears message any more. I don't think that's worth worrying
about; the scroll leaving inventory after burning up is implicit.]
Also cut down on redundant feedback for several scrolls (genocide,
charging, identify, stinking cloud) that start off by informing the player
what they are. That's only needed when the the player doesn't already
know the type of scroll. I've always felt it silly to be told that I've
"found a scroll of genocide" when I'm intentionally reading a known scroll
of genocide. All these types of scroll give a subsequent prompt which
makes them recongizable if you somehow manage to choose the wrong object
when picking the one to read.
Lastly, make spell of identify behave like ordinary uncursed scroll of
identify by default instead of ususally ID'ing multiple items. Now you'll
need to be skilled or better in divination spells skill in order to get the
blessed scroll effect out of it. And give some feedback if the spell is
cast when not carrying any inventory; it was just silently moving on to the
user's next command in that case.
While testing some killer_xname() changes, I noticed that it was
feasible to avoid having some gear destroyed by causing a hangup after
getting the destruction message. And while testing the fix for that, I
stumbled across a panic situation (not caused by my changes). If you
survive entering lava while wearing water walking boots (and aren't fire
resistant yourself, and don't have enough hit points to survive 6d6
damage, and your boots aren't fireproofed...), having those boots be
destroyed will dump you back into the same lava recursively (lava_effects
-> Boots_off -> spoteffects -> lava_effects). And if you survive that
(wizard/explore mode or life-saving), there will be a panic when finishing
deletion of the boots (useupall) because the recursive call will have
already done it (since they aren't worn anymore when inner call handles
them, no additional recursion gets triggered and object deletion happens).
Some of the other stuff I was working on is mixed in here because
this is the configuration I ended up using to test the panic fix.
Several Makefiles are missing the dependency for context.h (post-3.4.3
revision). If yours is, then you'll need to force a full rebuild after
applying this or you'll end up with havoc. (Mine was, but I noticed that
the expected full build wasn't happening and interrupted it to fix that.)
monst->cham usage bit. CHAM_ORDINARY probably ought to be discarded
and replaced by NON_PM; then mons[0] wouldn't be ineligible to become a
shapechanger. (Not that we want giant ants to mutate on the fly, but in
case someone ever inserts something interesting in front of them.)
The logic in cant_revive() was a little off, so reviving a unique
corpse or statue on a bones level would recreate that unique monster instead
of making a doppelganger who's imitating it. Fixing that was simple but had
the unintended side-effect of making it impossible to deliberately create
unique monsters with ^G in wizard mode. So create_particular() has been
modified to let the user override the zombie or doppelganger conversion.
And then when not overriding, shapechangers took on random appearance, so
this also changes create_particular() to override shape changing. And that
has the side-effect of making chameleons or vampires start out as themselves
instead of as random critters or bats/fog clouds. [Better stop now! :-]
resetobjs() also needed to have extra corpse handling when saving bones
because the fix for revival wouldn't prevent you from turning to stone by
eating apparent-Medusa's corpse. Statues of uniques and corpses of special
humans like vault guards and shopkeepers didn't need anything extra; they
can retain original form until an attempt at revival is tried.
I'm not going to try to adapt this for 3.4.4.
Pointed out by <Someone>: engraving with a cursed wand should pose a
risk of having it explode just like zapping does. [At the moment when one
explodes, any existing engraving doesn't get changed.] Suggested by someone
(<Someone>?) some time back: explosion due to recharging could be consolidated
with explosion due to zapping cursed wands. And noted by <Someone> in the
newsgroup: '+' in an engraving--perhaps written by someone trying to leave
bones file notes--should have a chance of being partially rubbed out to '-'.
When confused remove curse acts upon an object to randomly bless or
curse it, clear the bknown flag. Do this for all objects which get subjected
to the effect, even ones which are already blessed or cursed and hence don't
change state.
For cancellation I accidentally used terrain type WATER when I meant
object type POT_WATER, so being charged for cancelling holy or unholy water
wasn't working. When I first put in COST_UNHOLY the name made some sense
based on its usage, but after later adding COST_UNBLSS it didn't any more;
change it to COST_UNCURS.
A shopkeeper's complaint that you're uncursing or unblessing his wares
(only applies to water) now sets bknown flag since you know that the object
has become uncursed. I hadn't realized that confused remove curse only
affects uncursed objects; this greatly simplifies extra code I added there
for costly_alteration().
[No fixes entry needed.]
[This ought to be suitable for the branch version too but I'm not going to
spend the effort to migrate it there.]
Recently From a bug report, reducing
the value of a shop object via cursed enchantment was ignored by shopkeeper.
This replaces the existing costly_cancel() routine with costly_alteration()
which performs a similar task: bill for any item whose value has been made
less. The hero owns the resulting object but must pay for the original one
before being allowed to leave the shop.
This covers the majority of cases where bill_dummy_object() was already
being used: cancelling a charged or enchanted item, casting drain life at
same, diluting potions or blanking scrolls or books by dipping them into a
potion of water, dulling a weapon by engraving with it, eating unpaid food
or opening unpaid tins, applying a cream pie to hit yourself with it in the
face, applying a wand to break it, burning something by dipping it into lit
potion of oil, and clearing potions by dipping a unicorn horn into them.
The shop billing behavior for those actions hasn't been changed, just
consolidated into one place which delivers a common message for them.
This also covers many cases which weren't being handled: stripping
wand or magic tool charges via cursed scroll of charging, reducing a charged
ring's enchantment via same, reducing weapon or armor enchantment via cursed
scroll of enchant weapon or armor, stripping an item's rustproofing via
confused enchantment, making a crysknife revert to a worm tooth, unblessing
potions of holy water or uncursing potions of unholy water. (That last one
won't be billed if it's the result of prayer rather scroll, spell, or #dip.)
And this tries to handle the reverse situation more thoroughly too:
many actions which improve the value of an unpaid item now also cause the
shop bill to be updated to reflect its new higher price. Aside from the
basic enchanting and charging magic, it covers converting dragon scales into
dragon scale mail and worm tooth into crysknife. Some things which might be
expected to inflate shop prices, like rustproofing or increasing the number
of charges in a wand, don't actually affect the price. And there are bound
to be cases where the price is affected but I've overlooked.
Fix the bug From a bug report. Subsequently removing
the item caused those attributes to be returned to an incorrect value
which was higher than the character started out with.
Try to address the problem From a bug report: turning the Wizard
of Yendor to stone preserves monster information with his statue and
presence of that information overrides the statue animation check
intended to prevent players from creating the Wizard (or other unique
monsters). That's ok for the current game--the monster had to have been
in play in order to be turned to stone--but is a problem if the statue
is found in a bones file. The report was for placing such a statue at
the location of an untriggered statue trap by a player who leaves bones,
but stone-to-flesh by the player who loads bones is a simpler way to
trigger this. (Aside from getting unique monsters earlier than usual
under some degree of player control they won't have their starting
inventory so special items like the Candelabrum might not get created.)
Using undead turning to revive corpses found in bones was another way to
get into the same trouble (I thought corpses of special monsters were
already excluded from bones?).
It looks like it's also possible to get strange quest behavior if
a corpse or statue of the leader or nemesis is brought into the dungeon,
left in bones, then revived by the second player, but I didn't attempt
to reproduce it. More work is probably needed; this tightens up leader
handling a bit but doesn't do anything about the nemesis. This patch
has already been spreading tentacles and I've got to cut it off....
The patch discards saved monster traits for corpses and statues of
unique monsters while saving bones; reviving or reanimating them will
produce doppelgangers instead of the original monsters, same as stone-to-
flesh on wished-for statues behaves. It also discards saved traits for
shopkeepers (also temple priests and vault guards--their traits weren't
saved in 3.4.2 though). That info might be useable when the corpse or
statue is on the same level as the monster started (ie, where its special
room is located), but that's a complication I'm going to bypass. This
patch also adds chameleon handling for statue activation--it wouldn't
have mattered in 3.4.2 since shapechangers didn't get their traits saved;
it does matter now but was omitted when trait-saving was extended to all
statues a while back. (It adds chameleon handling to corpse revival too,
but they still don't get their traits saved with corpses so that's just
protection in case of future modifications.)
Other bits: `cant_create()' is renamed to `cant_revive()' since
the latter is a more signicant use than wizard mode <ctrl/G> handling.
Now save traits with nymph corses so that cancellation can be propagated
if they're revived; that doesn't matter much but matches statue handling
(where it was more important since it dealt with succubi as well as with
nymphs). Explicitly initialize the shape-changer field of all monsters
instead of relying on implicit initialization to 0 (CHAM_ORDINARY).
There'll be a *much* shorter patch for 3.4.3 which will have to get
by with most of these obscure problems--fortunately they're unlikely to
impact many (any?) players.
