We have rogue version 5.3, and get the same bugs.

i.e.  the program dies at random intervals for no apparent reason,
saving the game. When you try to restart it, it dies and saves it again.
An even more annoying *BUG* is when it starts to lose track of your
possesions, not showing them -- and sometimes showing things that you
don't and never had -- in the inventory. We just aquired AD_D version DEW 
3.89 but have not yet gotten it installed on our system. (It has its own
version of curses for some reason, and doesn't seem to use termcap correctly, 
hence it won't work properly with our terminals.)     

If you have any suggestions for repairing 5.3, or installing AD_D, they would
be greatly appreciated (by direct mail, or, if they would be of general 
interest, on the net).
