After checking the Wolf sources for clues I've found the problem - it's actually a bug in Wolfenstein. It's using OS_Find 0,0 to close all open files, but that will only close the files on the current filing system. I'd be running the game from HostFS, but usually have ADFS as the current FS, hence the problems. Easy enough to fix with a simple "Dir <Obey$Dir>" added to the !Run file.
