Agreed!  BTW, according to comments in the code, the reason the production
points roll over at all is to prevent micromanagement (i.e. watching
for things about to be finished and moving workers around so that the
production comes out even).  By this rationale, the server should keep
track of "1st turn after build" and skip the penalty, as David said.
(And if the server keeps track it should automatically work with either
server or client-side build lists, as well as manual changes.)
Also, I haven't played Civ 2, so I don't know if anything rolls over there.
