Here's some weird things to ponder in OasisOLC:
Setup:
free(mob_proto) as first line in do_olc:
bin/circle -m (ok)
Setup:
free(mob_proto) right after save checking:
bin/circle -m (crash)
bin/circle (ok)
Puff gets whacked but it looks like everything else gets copied ok...even
though the memory was previously freed. (and if freed later it
crashes...I'm hunting it down currently...)
(All of this was on solaris, btw, not my normal Linux platform.)
