[Nel] here's the landscape.cpp patch I used

Thanks to Leighton's advice I was able to get running.  Here's the
patch I used:

As he said, this is not an actuall fix, merely a way to cover up the
problem.  This will probably make sense to someone there and in the
mean time I can learn about the rest of this system.

Woo hoo!
