SLASH'EM

Hi, I noticed that my monk (chaotic 13th level doppelganger monk with Grand
Master Martial Arts) cannot harm Vecna, although the monk is wearing
Blessed fireproof +4 Gauntlets of Dexterity. The only way I can harm him is
when I do the 'Elemental Fist' technique. But still, that doesn't kill
Vecna (the technique wears off before Vecna bites the dust).
I read some spoilers (just to find out whether this is normal) and the
spoilers told me that the Grand Master Martial Arts should be enough. Plus,
a +4 enchanted artifact should count for someting, no?
Still, I'm not sure whether it's a bug or intended behaviour, but I want to
report this anyway.
I use the CVS version with SDL/OpenGL interface. I build the beast with the
SDL/OpenGL interface and used the GNU autoconf way of configuring.
Keep up the great work!
