Package: freeciv
Version: 2.0.1-1
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***
I found that if I press "g" to make an engineer "go" somewhere while the 
engineer is on glacier tiles the client segfaults.

This is on a 29,000 isometrec-doughnut world.  (I was doing this to the 
north(?) pole.  But I suppose any glacier tile would work.  The engineer was 
surrounded by glacier tiles.)

Suggested fix:  Rather than making it impossible to "go" through hostile 
tiles, change it so the routing paths prefer non-hostile, but if 
impossible, it shows the routing path in red.

Or at least that's how I'd fix it.  Unfortunetly I lack enough programming 
skill to do that/check if it's possible.
