[crossfire] strange behaviour of movements with latest server

[tchize]

Hello,
Today, i tested some changes on a local server an , while playing with it, i 
noticed a strange behaviour of my charchter. it was simply freezing for a few 
seconds and then followed a whole path of movements like recorded from 
before. During the whole process, the background animations were running so 
it was not a freeze from server of client.

Here is what i did
- switch to dm (so to not be blocked by walls, etc, works also without dm but 
easier to notice as dm)
- hit the 'run' key
- while key is pressed, go up, down, left, whatever
- suddently, the character freeze. Don't release run key an choose another 
direction, then another one, then release run
- wait
- when character unfreeze, it runs a long way along the first path, then the 
second, then the third.

I don't know what is causing this, occured with mf server, local server 
(latest cvs) but not with mikeeusa server (server a few weeks old only). My 
guess is someone did changes sth to protocol which could have broken this, 
but i have no clue.
Also, while character is frozen, commands like say, shout are also frozen, but 
taken into consideration after the unfreeze.
