OK, I admit my reply was rather flip, BUT:
it is certainly possible that this over heating may have baked away 
what little torque remained in the pinblock; likewise soundboard 
cracks and rib separations are also well within the realm of 
possibility. The soundboard/rib damage may not be fully apparent 
until after a full cycle of wet/dry seasons. Glue joints within the 
action are also vulnerable.
Inspect things carefully, with the caveat that more problems may 
become apparent in time.
