}    I forgot to mention this: the way to keep that from happening until 2.3
} comes out is not to use the capital "D" command. Actually, you can, but when
} it asks you what types of things to drop, just hit return.

Actually, this is only a minor hassle, not a major problem.
If you rename the emergency ".e" save file to a normal save file
name and restore it, it works fine.

Another bug: praying has gotten floating exceptions a few times.
This too can be resolved by the above method.
