I can't reproduce this - I entered the saloon and no error came up. Please attach a savegame where this occurs.

This looks like a script bug in the Freddie Pharkas German datafiles which is detected by newer versions and thus the SCI interpreter halts... Earlier versions didn't do this, resulting in game state corruption and some very weird bugs.
I can add a workaround for this, but it would be useful to identify your exact version so we can find a copy to test with. Please could you attach a text file to this bug containing a file listing of your Freddy Pharkas German datafiles, preferably with file md5sums? The output of a tool such as this: http://md5summer.org or other tool from http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Reporting_unknown_MD5_checksums would be optimal.
