DW2: Crash On Entering Sewers

Description
In Discworld 2, upon entering the Sewers (From the Fool's Guild), ScummVM errors out with an assertion: scummvm: engines/tinsel/actors.cpp:770: int Tinsel::GetLoopCount(int): Assertion `ano > 0 && ano <= NumActors' failed. This may be linked to the animation of the Luggage jumping into the Sewers.
This only seems to occur when starting from a "New Game", as loading a savegame at the Fool's Guild does not trigger an issue. Cutscenes were also skipped through using ESC.
ScummVM 1.4.0git471-gd2a55b4-dirty (May 22 2011 17:11:48) Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 ALSA SEQ TiMidity RGB zLib FluidSynth Theora on Linux x86_32
As reported on IRC by Tron, but have replicated.
Will attempt to bisect for regressive commit.

I don't have the time to look for where it broke now, but if I didn't mess up with git, the error was there in a132bbb10c2f7349862c6c35d03d829ff76d5dea which was a while ago.

It's possible that you have to wait for the ghost to appear before entering the sewers, in order to trigger the bug.

This revision seems to work for me:
TINSEL: Removed some unused global static variables c89f2276d1b52a99f08861c5acd86fedb349c718
While this revision is broken:
TINSEL: Removed some unused global static variables cd085b1ae889dfa12d1b525810b218342c61a7a6
The only suspicious thing I see is the removal of cdPlayFileNum and cdPlaySceneNum. Now, cdPlayFileNum was never actually set, it seems, but cdPlaySceneNum was so maybe when it tested for "if (cdPlayFileNum == cdPlaySceneNum && start == cdBaseHandle)" it was actually testing for "if (cdPlaySceneNum == 0 && start == cdBaseHandle)".
Actually, I don't see cdPlaySceneNum ever being 0, so maybe LoadExtraGraphData() should just never return prematurely? Removing the "if (start == cdBaseHandle)" test from LoadExtraGraphData() seems to work for me.

fingolfin: Apologies. I initially thought that this was a recent regression due to the pDispList issues, but this does not appear to be the case.

This bug also happens in the 1.3.0 branch, so it shold probably be considered quite important.

Oops, I see I got the titles of the commits wrong earlier. The working revision had the description, "TINSEL: Merged NewName() inside DoSave() in order to remove a static var"

This should be fixed now, on both the trunk and the 1.3 branch. (I'm using a simpler fix on the trunk, but it carries a theoretical but unlikely chance of regressions. The fix on the branch should be perfectly safe.)

I get this too. I don't get the same error every time. Sometimes I get the assertion, sometimes it just crashes and a few times I've gotten an "Overlapping (in time) CD-plays" errors. And sometimes it doesn't crash at all, though going up and down a few times seems to do the trick in those cases.
I was able to capture one crash in Valgrind:

I added a debug("pReel->mobj = %u", FROM_LE_32(pReel->mobj)); to ExtractActor(), and this is the output I got from it, playing the game from the beginning:
pReel->mobj = 505418960 pReel->mobj = 505425552 pReel->mobj = 505426756 pReel->mobj = 505427028 pReel->mobj = 505415672 pReel->mobj = 505425016 pReel->mobj = 505427260 pReel->mobj = 505422988 pReel->mobj = 505419584 pReel->mobj = 235993848 pReel->mobj = 134337452 pReel->mobj = 3652914432 Segmentation fault
Actually, the entire FILM struct seems messed up at this point. In the ones before, frate has been 8 and numreels has been between 2 and 7. For the last one, I just got 2477906393 and 2813428185. Perhaps significantly, these values do not appear to be random. I got them twice in a row now.
