Description:   Opened: 2005-01-07 08:18 0000 
The 'adventure' game from the games-misc/bsd-games-2.13 package crashes when
saving the game on AMD64 (and probably other 64-bit systems, but I haven't
checked).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a game of adventure on an AMD64 system.
2. Type "no" in response to the question about instructions.
3. Type "save".
4. Enter a filename.

Actual Results:  
The game crashes with a segmentation fault.

Expected Results:  
The game saves and exits normally.

Patch coming....

Patch for the game itself

Patch for the ebuild (bsd-games-2.13.ebuild -> bsd-games-2.13-r1.ebuild)

Some comments:
1) The patch for the game is only applied on AMD64 systems - it shouldn't hurt
others, but just to be safe....
2) KEYWORDS only contains "~amd64", since it doesn't change anything on other
arches, so no need to make them upgrade.

patch seemed to work fine on x86 too so ive added 2.13-r1 with it

thanks !
