50 didn't work.

52 effects (w.r.t. put_more) per mapspace, to give the server a chance
53 to survive a hundred deathsheads.

105 making its null value a compiletime constant.

107 as well as using shstr_cmp to pass shared stringsa round efficiently,
108 for lots of code size savings.
109 - monsters which breed new monsters shouldn't breed new monsters when
110 they are sleeping: generators now check for the sleeping flag.

124 - fix being able to see through walls a bit.
125 - improve look at output.

131 - update los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when
132 removed (e.g. for summon fog).
133 - permanent invisibility doesn't make immune against making noise:

145 darkforest freely on the worldmap, to get gradual sight obstacles
146 instead of total blackout in those areas.

155 ambient lighting and centrally manage darkness as an offset.
156 - revamped, fixed and documented the server calendrics, also
157 tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness.
158 - implement proper wizlook flag and handling of wizlook, instead
159 of dumbly just clearing los once.
160 - speed up los code - it's now about 2-3 times as fast as the old one,
161 and has a smaller runtime variance.
162 - daylight/nightfall can now increase/decrease past the natural limit,
163 making them actually useful.
164 - see_in_dark now increases the viewing radius by 3.
165 - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it in LOS for a 20%
166 speedup, as well as in many other places.

168 by the deliantra client and removing them gives us a 10% speedup
169 when sending map changes.

171 as now obsolete protocol versions, simplying the code.
