Last night I submitted a bug report to bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, an
address I spotted in a source file, thinking the communication would be
private.  This morning I realized it wasn't.  I'm sorry for making a
security hole public before a patch was available.  However, I've
attached my own suggested fix for the bug.  It consists of two rather
trivial changes: adding a check for invalid index in
handle_player_worklist( ) and eliminating the strcpy( ) from
copy_worklist( ).
