I'm reposting my fix to the 8-bit patches that will take care of this
problem. Apply this in the "src" subdirectory. I'll try to get someone
(Marc A. probably) to include these in the list of official patches to 4.1
whenever such a thing appears. This patch might be a bit mangled (by xrn)
but it is trivial to apply by hand.
