Or did you and your friend also add the lava room? Or (this would be the really interesting case, family-tree-wise) was there already a lava room present in your version?
I can't immediately think of a lava obstacle in any version. (Well, the volcanic rift in GOET0580 and IIRC the very endgame of ROBE0665, in a sense. And the Volcano View is crossable in PLAT0550 and its descendants.)
Infocom's "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" (1984) includes an object named "no tea", which is in your inventory for much of the game.
