Comment (by sluicebox):

 I took a quick look, our restore patch is preventing the game's autosave
 script from running, which looks fixable by patching the Game superclass
 instead of the object. Then we'd probably want to detect the auto-save
 requests and map them to ScummVM slot 0 like in QFG4. I don't know this
 game though so maybe it works differently. I'll take a swing at this soon.

 To clarify, no autosaving is taking place, so what's appearing is the
 normal save dialog just as if Save had been clicked from the control
 panel. Slot 0 always appears on the save dialog in thumbnail mode and it's
 black because it's an empty slot. Switching to list-mode will show all the
 slots and all the empty ones look the same.

 An easy way to reproduce this is to use the debugger to go to room 640.
