You need to make the 'extern' in the file with 'version' match the
declaration in constants.c. (Or just check out the CVS patch at
ftp://ftp.circlemud.org/pub/CircleMUD/cvs/, it'll have it in the huge
mess that is eventually going to be bpl15.)

config.c:

/*
 * Should the game automatically save people?  (i.e., save player data
 * every 4 kills (on average), and Crash-save as defined below.  This
 * option has an added meaning past bpl13.  If auto_save is YES, then
 * the 'save' command will be disabled to prevent item duplication via
 * game crashes.
 */
int auto_save = YES;

or just hack up act.other.c to let you.
