This was addressed previously.

This addresses the flavorwise concern.

This addresses the "hiding under nothing" bug, but does not
address this flavor comment also included in the report:

This fixes the code violation, but the logic will now drop down to the
ghost/wraith/zombie code when that happens.
Is that desireable, or should something else happen (for variety)?
Look up remembered dungeon features, not user-visible glyphs,
and ignore uninteresting features (room, corridor and wall tiles).
Original patch by Patric Mueller, from UnNetHack
Bug report included a pointer to a fix; this patch is a superset.
Gold pieces dropped on an altar by the player got their bknown flag set,
which is incorrect since bless/curse doesn't apply to coins. If a
monster (in reported case, a slain temple priest) dropped gold there too
then the two stacks wouldn't merge. For the normal !GOLDOBJ config, the
problem goes away as soon as the gold gets picked up. I didn't test for
GOLDOBJ but think two inventory slots containing gold can result.
The superset part is to not break agnostic conduct by dropping gold
on an altar since no information is revealed when doing that.
[This was one of the very last patches checked into the old cvs repository,
where the somewhat out of date message above was accidentally omitted.]
There was actually a fixes35.0 entry further down that covered off
that particular entry already which I missed first time around.

This is catching up on some things that were changed
in development years ago that Dave C. suggested be
documented.
For the record:
-The things that were evaluated and ruled out
are now documented in include/youprop.h so they don't
come up again.
- The things that were evaluated and deemed to be susceptible
to the intrinsic and thus led to a modification in the code
are listed below in this commit message.
Modifications:
- A crystal ball exploding on being applied
- Artifacts' blasting
- Being a fish out of water
- Being hit by Mjollnir on the return
- Being thwacked by an iron ball chained to you
- Boiling/freezing potions
- Broken wands
- Bumping head on ceiling by cursed levitation
- Burning (un)holy water
- Chest/door/tin traps
- Dipping a lit lamp into a potion of oil
- Exploding rings and wands (under all circumstances)
- Exploding spellbooks
- Falling downstairs
- Falling into a (spiked) pit
- Falling off or failing to mount a steed
- Falling on a sink while levitating
- Getting squished in a pit under a boulder
- Hitting your foot with a bullwhip
- Hitting yourself with your pick-axe
- Hooking yourself with a grappling hook
- iron-ball-pulling yourself out of a bear trap
- Jumping/Newton's-Thirding into something solid
- Kicking something that makes you go "Ouch!"
- Land mine explosion
- Sitting in a spiked pit
- Stinking cloud damage
- Thrown potion (bottle)
- Zapping yourself with a wand, horn or spell
- Jumping yourself out of a bear trap
From ais523's recent list of bugs:
If a long worm tail is blocking the door, and you're blind and not
telepathic, attempting to close the door marks the position of its head.
From an email received in late September 2014 before the git conversion:
> I was trying to close a door, not noticing that there was a garter
> snake there, and this message resulted:
> The garter snake stands in the way!
> I haven't tried it with any other monsters without feet, but
> "stands in the way" appears to be the wrong way to describe
> this situation...
Both of the above were found in the same function in lock.c
Pressing '@' will move the cursor on top of the hero.
Pressing '#' will toggle automatic description mode, where
the feature under the cursor is automatically described
when the cursor is moved.
Explore mode is now an extended command #exploremode.
There's no sense that a command used max. once per game, and
in normal games not at all, takes up a key. So, analogous to
the 'x' command (swap weapons), 'X' now toggles two-weapon
combat.
This now ensures that dipping into water works like other sources of
water damage. There is a potentially significant gameplay change here:
dipping a container into uncursed water will wet all its contents. If
this is a problem, then we should add another parameter to water_damage
which will suppress this behaviour for dipping.
