 When Brandon turns into a will-o-wisp, what was previously dark rooms in
 the fireberry maze are lit by a purple glow. However, in some rooms this
 glow isn't applied when playing the floppy version of the game.

 I think this is because the maze added a couple of bushes in later
 versions. We have a special case for that in
 `o1_findBrightestFireberry()`, but it seems we also need that in
 `o1_setFireberryGlowPalette()`.

 On a related note, when the will-o-wisp spell wears off the room stays
 lit. I don't know if that's an original glitch or not.

 I'm attaching a savegame at the Cavern of Twilight. That should make it
 easy to reproduce, since one of the rooms where a fireberry bush was added
 is nearby.

 Here is a map I drew of the maze long ago:

 I think this is how the rooms are numbered:
