Special Birth Messages Don't Seem to be Displayed

Since the change to the character generation process implemented in r65, special birth messages (falling star, two-headed calf, long-lost brother, undead packing up) don't seem to be displayed. I haven't seen one once over the course of generating hundreds of characters.

EDIT: In ASCII, they are shown once in an easy-to-miss spot. In tiles, they do not appear to be shown at all. See https://steamcommunity.com/app/33330...2173911375194/

Okay, it seems like these messages are actually displayed in the character's history on character creation. Would still be nice for these messages to be highlighted the same way starsign, race, and class are; currently they are quite easy to miss (and they are not viewable with "B" post character creation).

Well, not exactly. While it would also be nice to see these messages after character creation, the message you get during character creation has been made much easier to miss since r65.

They are "special" messages, so I think they should stand out significantly when they are generated rather than just be part of the history text. The previous method was good with the "more" type prompt they couldn't be missed.
