Level 18.  6284 gold.  +8 protected armor.  18 strength.  79 hit points.
Scare monster scroll.  Ring dexterity +1.

Dsusp undefined.

Black Unicorn dies.  Game saves.  rerun -- game saves.


At that point I dove into 'adb /usr/games/rogue', and tried to disable to
disable the auto-save -- unsuccessfully.

Is there any particular REASON the "authors" (I would rather use a stronger
word) of rogue will not fix this problem?  I mean, I realize they have no
obligation do to so, but it would certainly benefit hundreds of people.

Binary patching is very powerful.  It is almost surely possible to correct
this problem with patching.  After all, that's how VMS works. :-)
