Again, looking in the code I spotted this MACRO that seems to me
wrong:

-> File: objects.h Line: 55-56
 *   Copy_Flag   (Object1, Object2, Flag) : Set the Flag in Object1 to the
 *                                          value of the Flag in Object2.

-> File: objects.h Line: 108-111
#define Copy_Flag(Object1, Object2, Flag) \
  { (Object1)->Flags = (((Object1)->Flags) & (!Flag)) | \
                       (((Object2)->Flags) &  (Flag)); }




I think ~ is correct instead of !

#define Copy_Flag(Object1, Object2, Flag) \
  { (Object1)->Flags = (((Object1)->Flags) & (~Flag)) | \
                       (((Object2)->Flags) &  (Flag)); }

I agree.  However, s it is only used in Copy_Poly (the function that copies
declared poly objects), I guess nobody noticed yet in years...
