	No!  Whenever you polymorph any "regular" monster into another, the
new monster behaves exactly like all others of its type.  Thus a homunculus
that is polymorphed into a nurse will behave exactly like any other nurse.

	By the way, I checked this on our own local (essentially unmodified)
version 1.0.3 of hack and found this to be true.
