This is no longer hardcoded to the engine in 2.6, though most rulesets still
prevent settlers from fortifying.

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #17607 (project freeciv):

I think historical main reason why settlers cannot fortify is user interface.
When 'f' is pressed, settlers build fortress, other units fortify.

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #17607 (project freeciv):

Is there any rational reason for this and would anything break if one changed
it? I can't see any reason why it would upset autosettlers, atleast.
Not being able to fortify on ocean tiles makes sense as long as the fortify
defence bonus is fixed, on the other hand.

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #17607 (project freeciv):

At the moment settlers can never be fortified. See
unit.c:can_unit_do_activity_targeted_at():


  case ACTIVITY_FORTIFYING:
return (uclass_has_flag(pclass, UCF_CAN_FORTIFY)
&& punit->activity != ACTIVITY_FORTIFIED
&& !unit_has_type_flag(punit, F_SETTLERS)
&& (!is_ocean(pterrain) || tile_city(ptile)));

Details:

This may be a GTK-client issue.
Having unitflag "Settlers" means a unit can never fortify (except, I assume,
by savegame editing), even if it has classflag "CanFortify". This holds true
regardless of unit roles and the existence of base definitions in the
ruleset.
