I was in a situation once where I could SEE there were no stairs!  It
was on level 2 or 3, and all the rooms were lit.  After exploring the
entire level, I started head for the stairs when I realized that there
weren't any on my screen.  I had found all the rooms, no hidden doors
anywhere, etc.  Then I remembered an eye I had left alone.  I returned
to that room, killed the E and the stairs were under it!

I, too, experienced a  situation  where  there  were  no  stairs.
However  in  my  case,  I  had bumped off all the meanies on that
level and there were still no stairs to be found. What frustrated
me  even  more, was that some of the little monsters were able to
pop in to play, but I had to sit around  and  wait  for  them  by
leaning on my space-bar. Such is the life of a rogue, I suppose-).

As for the version of Rogue I was playing, I was able  to  elicit
the following response when I asked it about it's version number:
"Rogue version 4.R. (mctesq & rer were here)."
