I've just used it twice, for me it summoned a unique right next to me
(both times).

In the routine summon_specific

/* Pick a monster, using the given level */
r_idx = get_mon_num(lev);

That lev might be the max depth visited. In any case, there is some
sort of level test going on.

Oh I wish! Plenty left I'm afraid. Actualy it's my better halfs game. She's
playing NPP while I slug on with V (till my current char taps out or beats
Morgoth)

Anyway first time she used it on 1st level. Poped down the stairs, read scroll,
cleared level nothing. Figured it wouldnt summon OOD. Next time on a
pre-cleared 35th Level (1750'), again re-cleared the level and found nothing
special. 3rd Time read on a uncleared level, zipped round found nothing, got
bored didnt look everytwhere before carrying on. Does it only summon In Level
bad guys? Those might be all killed....
