Sigh.  It's at times like this I understand why soap has instructions.
(It's even a documented #define...at the top of the file, or at least was.)

They aren't, unless medit happened to scribble over that exact section of
memory.

I recommend you:
A) Find all the memory overrun patches for CircleMUD on my web site.
        (http://www.van.ml.org/CircleMUD/ or the mirror.)
B) Ensure you have OasisOLC >= v1.5

If you still crash, then it's likely your own brainchild. :)
