[rec.games.hack] nethack 2.3 dragon bug

play@ucrmath.UUCP (Mr. Games) (11/12/88)

There have been a few people here at this site asking, if not pleading me
to fix this bug that has seemed to crop up.  It seems pretty straight
foward.  The player hacks around and gets around to a dragon, the bug
doesn't seem particular, any dragon will do.  Without warning, a
segmentation violation occurs.

It used to work fine on our old VAX 11/750(780)'s but now that we've got
all new Sun equipment it just doesn't like me anymore.

I remember reading about this a while back but I never paid much attention
to it because no one around here had any problems.

Does anybody have a fix?  Maybe a hint on where to look?

Thanks in advance
