	I'm playing the small version of hack (pdp11/45 version).

	I have a gripe! I found a wand on the first level.
	ran into a ghost on the second level and zapped him.
	it polymorphed into a lurker. I ran away since I only had a few
	hitpoints at best. later on the level I got swallowed by the
	critter, so I did the only thing possible, I polymorphed it.
	it turned into a violet fungi which I couldn't escape or hit
	or zap or do anything SINCE IT WAS OCCUPYING THE SAME SPACE
	AS I. I think this ought to be modified to place the monster next to
	you if the polymorphed monster WAS a lurker AND had swallowed you.
