Comment (by m-kiewitz):

 to patch the game:
 extract 140.hep by entering "diskdump heap 140" inside debugger console

 edit that file with a hex-editor
 look for the sequence:
 000005e0: 00 00 ff ff 0a 00 00 00-00 00 00 00 8c 00 ff ff
 ................
 000005f0: 00 00 00 00 a0 00 00 00-82 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
 ................

 a0 00 is the room number to the north. You have to figure out the
 destination room number and change that value accordingly.

 Now I'm not sure which file name convention the original Sierra
 interpreter needs. It may be 140.hep

 You should be able to use that too for the other bugs.
 You can figure out the current room number by entering the command "room",
 but sometimes that info may be wrong, I'm not sure. I can't load all my
 old saved games, because of some new assert()s.
