Summary: Cursor disappears & game is unplayable after adjusting lens

Initial Comment:
I remember this occuring haphazardly with any of the
lenses, but I am able to reproduce the error faithfully
in one specific location. 

After fixing the broken panel on the map spire
lightbridge control panel, Boston does not stop talking
[mouth continues to move]. If you then attempt to use
the control panel at least once [note: particularly
without having adjusted the lens first] and it does not
work, Boston will continue to move his mouth. Adjusting
the lens after this causes the cursor to disappear
entirely and renders the game essentially
unplayable/frozen, although the background animation
continues to play. 

As noted above, this happens with any number of lenses
throughout the game; if Boston adjusts them after
having used the control panel once and failed, the game
usually exhibits the above behavior, locking up.  

I have attached a savegame at the point immediately
before the lock-up would occur. Move the lens to lock
the game up. If it does not occur the first time, move
it several times and it should. 

I'm using today's CVS build on Win32 with the English
version of 'The Dig'.
