Well, on a Unix system, with the configure-produced makefiles
we use, this isn't a problem, because freeciv is compiled with 
flags like "-I. -I../common" which cause _both_ #include <> and 
#include "" look in the freeciv source directories _before_ 
looking in the system directories.  

But in any case the freeciv sources in CVS now use #include "",
so if you use the CVS sources you won't have this problem.

(With some exceptions, such as #include <config.h> instead of 
#include "config.h".  This (and the -I flags) makes sure the
right config.h is included even if there happened to be a different
config.h in one of the source directories.)
