I noticed this piece of code in db.c, in parse_mob:


#ifdef CIRCLE_ACORN /* Ugh. */
  if (sscanf(line, "%s %s %d %s", f1, f2, t + 2, &letter) != 4) {
#else
  if (sscanf(line, "%s %s %d %c", f1, f2, t + 2, &letter) != 4) {
#endif
    log("SYSERR: Format error after string section of mob #%d\n"
 "...expecting line of form '# # # {S | E}'", nr);
    exit(1);
  }

What is the meaning of this?
