Follow-up Comment #4, patch #1617 (project freeciv):
Updating the patch. This makes the mechanism much better.
New summary:
We change the type of the userdata to a marker class called
'Nonexistent' [when a freeciv object such as city or unit is free'd].
Nonexistent has one single method :exists() that always returns false. City
and Unit correspondingly have :exists() methods which should always return
true.
'Nonexistent' class is common for everything that is removed. I don't think
the extra complexity is needed to have separate Dead_Unit, Razed_City etc
types. In the end, there is no sensible methods you can call on a dead unit
anyway.
Players are also removed.
