act_obj.c, wear_obj

Locate:

         if( IS_OBJ_FLAG( tmpobj, ITEM_TWOHAND ) )
         {
            send_to_char( "You cannot hold something while wielding a two-handed weapon!\n\r", ch );
            return;
         }

Change to:

         if( tmpobj && IS_OBJ_FLAG( tmpobj, ITEM_TWOHAND ) )
         {
            send_to_char( "You cannot hold something while wielding a two-handed weapon!\r\n", ch );
            return;
         }

A classic oversight of not checking to make sure that a previous return value wasn't NULL before checking the attributes on it.
