You can use the 'objs' command to get a list of all objects on the
heap. Comparing those with the ones Sierra has on their heap at that time
might be a valuable hint.
(Note it's possible that lists or list nodes are being dropped- we still
have the occasional attempted DisposeList(n) where n is not a list).

That would be one way to fix it, but this version number is intended to be
used only by the resource decoder, so I wanted to pass the global
sci_version variable to it. I think I fixed it in main.c; double-check
that, please!
