Summary: MALCOLM: game won't start/missing file

Initial Comment:
Win32, current SVN, Malcolm's Revenge (Virgin White Label CD)

I copied all the files listed on the datafiles page to HD, then added Kyra3 to ScummVM. Upon starting it opens the console and complains that '6.FNT' can't be found. Further investigation shows that 6.FNT exists in ONETIME.PAK, however apparently ScummVM doesn't try to load it from there. When putting the 3 .FNT files from ONETIME.PAK into the same folder as the datafiles (so, outside of the .PAK files), ScummVM crashes with:

Assertion failed: data, file engines/kyra/kyra_mr.cpp, line 559

Others seem to get this game to work, so I assume that my game version is somehow different from most others. This game version used to work for me in ScummVM up until some detector changes as far as I remember.
