I have hacked up a fix for the blindness bugs. The problem was that
u.uprops was declared with 11 instead of 12 elements (happens to all
of us, right?), so that it ran into u.umconf (confuse monsters).
This was in you.h. In apply.c, Blindfolded must be set to
INTRINSIC, not 1, because it will timeout in one move. It did
not timeout in the original because timeout.c never got to the
BLINDFOLDED prop, since the array was declared one slot short.
Here's the patch:

! struct prop uprops[LAST_RING+11];
unsigned umconf;
