After reading [but perhaps not comprehending?] options.c myself, i have
the opinion that the first one is irrelevant. It looks like the '\0' is
supposed to be overwritten by the list of choices found in the second part. A
developer upstream thinks there is a bug there, though i'm waiting to enter it
into their tracker until i gather some more data. Anyway, i've built a new
.deb using your second patch. The interesting thing is, the new version
doesn't install a new .freeciv-client-rc-2.2 . When i
$ dpkg -x
/sw/fink/dists/local/main/binary-darwin-i386/freeciv_2.2.2-8_darwin-i386.deb
~/temp/
i don't see the rc file at all, just the stuff that goes into /sw . Is
there a better way to check this? I have tinkered with a few other
ConfigureParams between then and now so it's a possibility that it's not being
built anymore...
