Duke, L6 Common Orc Fighter, L4 of the Haunted Maw of Sorcery (aka the Village Dungeon)

You read the scroll labelled "ACME". The cursed woolen cloak of the beggar (Ch-4, Ap-4) [-2,+0] glows in a white light!
<pressed 'i' to enter inventory, pressed 'e' to remove cloak>
The uncursed woolen cloak of the beggar (Ch-4, Ap-4) [-2,+0] glows in a black light! You fail to remove a cursed woolen cloak of the beggar (Ch-4, Ap-4) [-2,+0] because it seems to be stuck!

Is this an error! Or am I permanently stuck with this item? I supposed I could read another scroll of uncursing so it wouldn't be cursing my character, but it's still a horrible piece of equipment... :(
