All I can tell you is that it happens to me too, and I haven't bothered
figuring it out yet, since I'm in the process of writing my own core.  :)

BTW, I've finally found a useful place to use frobs.  I'm still working
out my own implementation, but I'll try to make the frob-related code
available for people interested.  The core I'm working on will eventually
be available itself, as well.  I'm using frobs to store exit information
in rooms right now, and it's working out very well.

Happy hacking,
