Don't worry; it's a hard bug for a newbie to track down.
However, this problem has been brought up on the mailing
list. I'll repost the fix here, but you may want to try
searching the archives in the future. :)

In fight.c, in the hit() function make the following changes:
void hit(struct char_data * ch, struct char_data * victim, int type){
struct obj_data *wielded = GET_EQ(ch, WEAR_WIELD);
- int w_type, victim_ac, calc_thaco, dam, diceroll;
+ int w_type, victim_ac, calc_thaco, dam = 0, diceroll;
[...]
if (type == SKILL_BACKSTAB) {
dam *= backstab_mult(GET_LEVEL(ch));
- damage(ch, victim, dam, SKILL_BACKSTAB);
+ dam = damage(ch, victim, dam, SKILL_BACKSTAB);
} else
- damage(ch, victim, dam, w_type);
+ dam = damage(ch, victim, dam, w_type);
}
/* check if the victim has a hitprcnt trigger */
+ if (dam >= 0)
hitprcnt_mtrigger(victim);
}
