[CF-Devel] Item bugs.

[crossfire-devel at archives.real-time.com]

I checked the source again and I'm 111% sure it's behaving
exactly as intended - cumulative bonuses and never on str.

If I understand it correctly, however, and comparing it with the
Weapons of Occidental Mages, the catch is that the "bonus"
should be able to be negative to, so if you get +30 you're
*really* very lucky.  The version of the script attached does
just this.

      Of course it is, except that you can do it several times. A random +1

      it gives DEX, and well it was intended to do such thing only once. I don't
