Summary 0008879: "Spell assigned to 'a'." is printed at game start for jobs with a starting spell
Description Example game start messages:
Spell assigned to 'a'. Welcome, example the Human Wizard.
The bosom of this dungeon contains the most powerful artefact, the Orb of Zot.
Press ? for a list of commands and other information.
...


This message is confusing without the memorisation messages usually preceding it, and it is unneccessary.

I uploaded a very trivial (3 lines) patch fixing this problem by simply not printing the message if you.num_turns is zero.

As this is a trivial but frequently appearing bug, maybe this fix could be also added to 0.15.
