Any chance of seeing nethack-3.3.0 making it into ports/ before 3.4-STABLE or 4.0-STABLE? According to http://www.nethack.org/, there is a Y2K compliancy issue with nethack 3.2.2 and below. I happen to think this is pretty important, even though nethack is just for entertainment. I could not get 3.3.0 to run (after about an hour of hacking on the source, I got it to compile but segfaulted in libtermcap), but I'm sure there's something I'm missing as far as getting it to work. Also related, it would be greatly appreciated if one could make a tty-only version of nethack; not all of us have X installed, you know ;-). Any word on all of this?
