initial village capture moves him closer to his ally's keep than his own

Details:
Suppose A and B are allied AI sides, and A moves before B. Suppose further
that there is a village V positioned on the line between the two leaders'
keeps, nearer to A than to B, but still within one move of B. Assuming
default AI settings, the following occurs:
Turn 1: A recruits and then captures a village. B recruits and then captures
village V.
Turn 2: A returns to his keep to continue recruiting. B does nothing.
Turn 2 through K, exclusive: A continues recruiting and B continues to do
nothing until A runs out of gold.
Turn K: A moves one hex aside. B takes A's keep and recruits from it.
Turn K+1 onward: B continues to recruit from A's keep. A remains stationary
one hex away from the keep, never recruiting no matter how much gold he
accrues.
The only thing that will break this pattern is if B is injured and moves to a
village in order to heal.
I've attached a map on which it is easy to reproduce this bug. Start a
multiplayer game, with all sides computer-controlled, and sides 1 and 2
allied. Most any combination of leaders and starting gold should work.
