Nymph bug in 1.0.2

Here's a bug I just saw while watching a friend play Hack.  He was wearing
(and wielding, by accident) a cursed suit of ring mail.  He naturally wished
to dump these, but while going upstairs to get a destroy armor scroll, he
noticed a nymph.  I advised him to drop all other items and bump into the
nymph, and as expected, she seduced him and stole his armor.

BUT...when he tried to wield his longsword, it said "The ring mail is welded
to your hand!"  An inventory showed that he wasn't carrying the armor.
BTW, both the sword and the armor were named Orcrist.

Any ideas as to what's wrong?  Any fixes leap to mind?

(Also, if this bug has been reported before, I'm sorry, but I've been away.
Please just send me the fix, if I'm late on this one...)
