Details:

Requested on freeciv-i18n
https://mail.gna.org/public/freeciv-i18n/2010-09/msg0.html by
Belgae.

Attached patches split ?verb: and ?noun: senses for existing strings
View and _View, and add _Q() to appropriate bits of the clients. (Win32
client change is untested.)

For S2_2, an additional patch manually splits the string in all existing
translations so as not to degrade abandoned translations (since this string
has been around forever and is actually translated in all translations);
translators wishing to take advantage of the new distinction will need to go
in and fix things up manually. (I haven't done this for trunk; probably S2_2
translations will be copied to trunk
https://mail.gna.org/public/freeciv-i18n/2010-08/msg2.html anyway, and
if not, it'll remind translators that the distinction now exists.)

Follow-up Comment #1:

The fix is an improvement, but please don't rush another string change just
before the 2.2.3 release date - I don't want to delay it again.

Also, I strongly oppose the manual de-fuzzying here. It defeats the purpose
of fuzzy strings, which is to bring to translators' attention that they
should evaluate the translation of a particular string. If you want to fix
S2_2, I recommend waiting until after the 2.2.3 release before committing,
and leaving out any manual changes to the po files.

Follow-up Comment #2, patch #1922 (project freeciv):

OK, will wait until after 2.2.3 on S2_2, and leave the po-files alone. (I was
in two minds about this, hence the separate patch.)
