Doors with the `concealed' attribute cannot be entered. I'm not really
sure what the intent of this feature is; perhaps it's an accidental
leftover from an earlier design. If you want the door not to appear in
the room description, use the `scenery' attribute, or have the
`describe' routine print nothing and then return 1.
