BugFixes and a new crossloop.pl



I've been trying to hunt down bugs.  Crossfire has an abundance of the
freeing memory and then referencing it bugs, which cause random
seeming crashes or just bizarre behavior.  I uploaded a patch which
fixes a few of these as eanders-diffs-26Mar93.
I also put a new version of crossloop.pl in the ifi.uio.no
crossfire/incoming directory.  It will keep the server up provided it
isn't crashing too often, will check to make sure crossfire isn't
dumping to much information to stdout/err, indication it's in a loop,
and will clean up lock files and tmp files after the server has
crashed.

Finally, for those wanting to have a malloc debugging library to help
track down problems, I put malloc.tar.z on
madhatter.ws.cc.cmu.edu:pub, so you can get that and compile with it.
