-Subject: [PATCH] Handle bad chunks more gracefully
-
-Prior to this change the server would crash when attempting to load a
-chunk from a region with bad data.
-
-After this change the server will defer back to vanilla behavior. At
-this time, that means attempting to generate a chunk in its place
-(and occasionally just not generating anything and leaving small
-holes in the world).
-
-Should Mojang choose to alter this behavior in the future, this change
-will simply defer to whatever that new behavior is.
