Until the score file get trashed, I was listed as killed by a leprechaun.
Turns out that there is a way under rogue 5.2 to save a game just after
you get killed.  Then, when you restart the game, you have negative hit
points but aren't dead.  The first time a monster hits you the game checks
your hit points and if they are still negative you'll be killed again.

So, after using this bug, I was attacked by a leprechaun before I regained
hit points enough to be positive.  Result:  Killed by a leprechaun.
