This is strange.

I am suddenly getting some strange errors which seem to involve string 
matching.

When I type "l", look is invoked well.

However, if there's an object lying around (happens to be called "screen"), 
and I type "l screen" or "look screen", I get this:

#3:match (this == #84), line 1:  Verb not found
... called from #20:match_object, line 17
... called from #1:match_object (this == #84), line 3
... called from #3:l*ook (this == #84), line 11
(End of traceback)

However, if I pick up the object, it works.

It comes down to this: If I type "look <object>" and object is not on me, I 
get the error.

This has only happened recently, after I did some programming. The only verb 
I changed was $room:look_self(). And I added a verb called "ex" to $room.

Any ideas?
