"Bad item name" in Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup |

In crawl (and the crawl-tiles variant) I get frequent error messages
when levels are being generated like "Bad item name: fruit", which
appears to be for item types that were removed from the game.
Worse yet, when starting some of the sprints (eg The Pits), the game
freezes up, apparently with too many error such messages.
I figured this was due to the crawl-upgrade-saves.patch file, but when I
tried building without the patch I got the same errors.
Anyone experiencing the same?

This worked... I was even able to keep the scores file, though I deleted
everything else. I stopped getting the error messages.
I'm unsure if the issue was actually being hit by anyone else, and
whether the patch needs work or not, so I'm closing this. In the event
it should be reopened, then reopen it.
