Switching from 0i03 to 0j I’m seeing an issue where the game starts in darkness.

The key is in the middle:
| | | | | QUERY (current room $) src/light.dg:20
That’s from this code:
%% Here's my solution; when the emergency lights are on, or the headlights are on,
%% then Knock provides light!
(#knock provides light)
(#emergency-lights is on)
(or)
{
(#headlights is on)
(current room $Room)
(in range of headlights $Room)
}
It looks like the query to (current room $) failed.
As a side note: the new warnings in 0j identified that I was missing the query to (current room $), a latent bug.
If I get a chance I can start digging in stdlib.dg to see if something changed since 0j03 that could explain this.
