And my refactoring of the texture code just revealed its existence. The hack is still there but it now does a check for texture validity that is compatible with the backend.
So if I get that right, the underlying problem is otherwise not fixable then, without reworking some things in CON itself maybe?

In this case the defined animation sequence goes one frame further than the defined sprites. Without the hack you'd see the empty sprite being drawn.
