Comment (by sluicebox):

 I tried some stuff and couldn't reproduce what causes the bug, but I'm not
 a SQ6 expert, so here are are steps for how you can use the debugger to
 figure out exactly where things go wrong with the Do icon. It would be
 great if we can figure this out before the upcoming 2.2.0 release, but
 we'll get there either way.

 You can enter a command in the ScummVM debugger so that it will pop it up
 as soon as the Do icon breaks. How you open the debugger depends on your
 ScummVM version. If you're using release version 2.1.2 then it's
 CTRL+SHIFT+D. If you're using a newer development build then it's
 customizable. Go to Options \ Keymaps to see what the shortcut is for
 "Open Debugger". Once you've opened the debugger, type the following and
 press enter (capitalization matters):

 bpw doIcon2::message

 You can then dismiss the debugger with ESC or by typing "exit". You can
 verify that your breakpoint still exists with the "bl" command. If it's
 gone (maybe you returned to launcher) then just type the above command
 again to recreate it.

 If the debugger pops up while playing then you've tripped the bug! Type
 "bt" and screenshot the results and post it here along with what you did.
 (It might take multiple screenshots if you have to scroll to get all the
 text.) That might be enough information right there. Ultimately we want to
 know what actions to take to reliably trip this so you can restore to an
 earlier point try again, and if you figure it out then you can post a save
 right before with the steps to reproduce.

 Your last save is very helpful, but that error when loading it from the
 launcher is almost certainly a different bug.
