Perhaps this bug has already been fixed, but I don't recall seeing it:
running Nethack 2.2 on a System V R3 machine (AT&T 3B). When I
attempt to polymorph multiple objects, I get an EMT trap.
According to sdb, the following code is at fault:
start at line 619, zap.c --
/* modified by GAN to hit all objects */
if(fhito && o_at(bhitpos.x,bhitpos.y)){
int hitanything = 0;
for(otmp = fobj; otmp; otmp = otmp->nobj)
if(otmp->ox == bhitpos.x &&
EXPLODE ===> otmp->oy == bhitpos.y)
hitanything += (*fhito)(otmp, obj);
if(hitanything) range--;
}
Any ideas? My wonderful documentation doesn't really spell out what
EMT is trapping, although I assume from the code involved that
I'm pointing to a protected area of memory.
As always, thanks in advance. Please email -- I will post if I
get enough requests. BTW, please add my vote for a canonical
bugfix posting, oh you net.gods. If possible, context diffs
according to the *original* 2.2 source.
