Oops! I recant! My previous theory was incorrect. This has nothing to do with
Windows 98 vs Windows XP. This crash/hang only happens after a plotscripting
error (I had some broken plotscripts in Wander when I was testing)

It seems that after a plotscripting failure, exiting the Windows version of GAME
does not work.

I can't reproduce this, although I noticed something else: When I triggered a
script error (I popped a noop into a script), nothing showed up on screen
(although I still needed to press a key). I debugged it with gdb, and confirmed
that it does, in fact, enter scripterr, so...

I'm tempted to mark this 'worksforme' unless someone can re-confim it.

I think your right, but let's get one more person to verify it before WFMing it.

As for the error failing to show up, I am guessing maybe that has something to
do with the minor changes to screen page behaviour. I'll bet we need to add a
setvispage vpage right after drawing the error message

Yes, you're right. Oddly enough, the error gets drawn to two pages, 0 and 1.
Dunno why, but regardless, I comitted a patch (and tested it), so it shows up again.

Cool. Good work.

The double drawing of the error message was so that the message would be seen
without a setvispage. I have no idea why I went out of my way to avoid using
setvispage there. I suspect I must have originally written that code under
sleep-deprivation (or oxygen depravation)

Fixed and commited.

Oops. this was fixed a couple weeks ago, but I forgot to mark it as such.
