There is a bug in the NetHack 3.0pl8 binaries. The code for checking for the presence of a monochrome monitor doesn't work, and in fact produces a bus error. The workaround is to set the "nocolor" flag explicitly in the "nethack.cnf" file if you're running NetHack on a monochrome monitor. I'll be sending out pl9 binaries this weekend that will have this bug fixed. -- Eric R.
