orders_list and dir_list are ok.

Yes. The problem is in player_save_units() and player_load_units().
player_save_units() set target base char to '?', and this char isn't
changed in several cases. player_load_units() assumes that loaded
char is one of [0-9a-f].

Quickest (not the best) fix is 

-          } else if (base_buf) {
+          } else if (base_buf && base_buf[j] != '?') {

at server/savegame.c:1862

This is the first part of problem. The second part is that in
savegame file base_list is longer than activity_list. Now I have
no idea why.
