r20540 introduced ghosts, and made some other changes to FamiliarData.java to support their novel stuff regarding experience.
The upshot is that familiars in the terrarium that are equippable show up as weight 0, while equipped familiars are also showing incorrect weights.
I tested this as a TT with Testudinal Teachings, but I have also seen other incorrect weights. One user reports that weight is zero until the familiar is used, then returned to the terrarium
I'm not able to test that the ghost part is working, so I'm going to punt on this to someone else. I may be wrong about FamiliarData.java, but it's probably a good place to start.

My active familiar (exp 79)

both : Changing "gelat" to "Gelatinous Cubeling" would get rid of this message. ()
