// In QFG4, the kernel func SetNowSeen() returns void - meaning it doesn't
// modify the accumulator to store a result. Yet math was performed on it!
//
// The function updates boundary box properties of a given View object, prior
// to collision tests. IF (collision detection is warranted, and IF those tests
// are true), THEN respond to the collision.
//
// SetNowSeen() was inserted in the middle of the IF block's list of conditions.
// That way it can be short-circuited, and it runs before the tests.
//
// Problem: void functions make no promise about their truth value. After the
// call, acc will be *whatever* happened to already be in there. This is bad.
//
// "(| (SetNowSeen horror) $0001)"
//
// Someone wrapped the func in a bitwise OR against 1. Thus *every* value is
// guaranteed to become non-zero, always true. And the IF block won't break.
//
// In later SCI2 versions, SetNowSeen() would change to return a boolean.
//
// Whether a lucky confusion or ugly hack, the wrapped void IF condition works.
// When an object leaks into the accumulator. SSCI doesn't mind OR'ing it, too.
// ScummVM detects unsafe arithmetic and crashes. ScummVM needs proper numbers.
//
// "Invalid arithmetic operation (bitwise OR - params: 002e:1694 and 0000:0001)"
//
// We leave the OR wrapper. When the call returns, we manually feed the OR a
// literal 1. Same effect. The IF block goes on evaluating conditions.
//
// Wraith, Vorpal Bunny, and Badder scripts are not affected.
//
// Applies to at least: English CD, English floppy, German floppy
// Responsible method:
// (ego1, combat hero) Script 41 - xSlash::doit(), xDuck::doit(), xParryLow::doit()
// (ego1, combat hero) Script 810 - slash::doit()
// (Revenant) Script 830 - revenantForward::doit()
// (Wyvern) Script 835 - doRSlash::doit(), doLSlash::doit(), tailAttack::doit()
// (Chernovy) Script 840 - doLSlash::doit(), doRSlash::doit()
// (Pit Horror) Script 855 - wipeSpell::doit()
// (Necrotaur) Script 870 - attackLeft::doit(), attackRight::doit(),
// headAttack::doit(), hurtMyself::changeState(1)
// Fixes bug: #10138, #10419, #10710, #10814
