Summary 0006877: Going from Ice Form while Hungry with wielded vampiric weapon results in instadeath
Description It seems that when you go out from Ice Form while being sufficiently hungry ("Hungry" status in my case), the game automatically triggers vampiric weapon wield effect, killing you instantly due to starvation. I'm not sure if this has been considered, but it seems rather harsh and not in line with Crawl's philosophy of preventing player accidents.

 Ouch. No, we definitely don't want this to happen. Maybe hunger costs shouldn't get applied at all when unmelding vampiric weapons - at the very least there should be a limit to how low it can take your hunger.

 If you don't get distortion unwields, you shouldn't get vampiric wield effects from melding/unmelding.

Also, Contam.

 It does seem like unmelding a weapon just shouldn't count as "wielding" since effectively you were always wielding the weapon, it had just become part of you for a while.

 Huh, this would seem to be a regression since 0003783 wss supposed to be fixed.

 It's fixed for simple vampiric branded weapons, but not for the Vampire's Tooth fixedart. An unmeld parameter was added to that artefact's equip function, but it's not used. Right now it just checks if the player is alive, and if so decrements hunger.

 Fixed in trunk; applied the same check as vampiric weapons, the hunger part is skipped when unmelding.
