Its true that any changes should be made to data/Freeciv
and not client/Freeciv.h, but practice has been to check
in both data/Freeciv, and client/Freeciv.h with the generated 
changes.   (Ie: 1. change data/Freeciv; 2. compile; 3. check-in).

The alternative would be to not have client/Freeciv.h in cvs
at all, but I don't think we've had any real problems with
the current approach.
