Somehow I managed that now all pawns are royal and
all kings uncapturable by default. It *seems* that
deleting the offenders from the fairy choices does
reset that, but how exactly are the program rules? I don't
want all pawns to be royal by default just because
I added a royal pawn to the fairy piece resource.

Could you please open an issue at the github and provide more details on how to replicate this bug? Thanks.

Sorry, no username for global GIT (?!) and too lazy
to create one since I hate GIT with a vengeance,
being forced to use it in my CS studium :P
Replicateable:
Add a fairy to pieces box (normal piece with property)
Enter a position via FEN line
Add fairy piece with drag&drop
Create a problem with a bug (say, 2K w/o multiplex)
(that step might be superfluous)
Start Popeye (will protest, of course)
Leave Olive
Start Olive anew, now FEN will default to fairy piece
To slay bug:
Delete fairy from pieces box, FEN normal again
I think this should be defined as a feature :-)

Ah, yes, this is a feature, indeed. FEN input field prefers fairy pieces from the piece box if there's an ambiguity, so when there's, say, a kamikaze pawn in the piece box, "P" in FEN would be treated as a white kamikaze pawn (no other steps are really necessary to reproduce). Normal pawns still may be setup with drag'n'drop or ctrl+drag'n'drop (makes copies).
This feature was asked quite some time ago, if I remember correctly, it makes sense eg if you have lions in piece box then "(Q3)" in FEN would mean a Lion, and when you have chinese pieces then it would mean a Leo.
Personally, when working with fairies in Olive I find it much more convenient to copy & paste the whole entries from the list view rather that just FEN strings. It also works between several launched copies of Olive, supports multiple selection and hotkeys (Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V etc).
The reason for using the global issue tracker is that the bugs are usually fixed in a batch when there is time, and not being in the issue tracker minimizes their chance of being fixed.
