This didn't matter for the default ruleset (where the Palace is the only "small wonder" and this effect is desired), but it does affect the "rewonder" ruleset. <li>gold_upkeep_style=2: when gold runs out, buildings and units are alternately sold (rather than selling all buildings before selling any units). <li>Fix trouble with technologies with a "root_req" specification. <li>If the server setting 'citymindist' was changed from its default, the AI was not taking this into account when planning its cities. <li>Minor improvements to in-game text. <li>Minor improvements to comments in ruleset files. <li>Fix contact details in man pages. <li>Several invisible changes to assist with translation. <li>Updated translations: Complete translations: Polish, Catalan, Spanish, Japanese, French, Italian.
