Just one comment: this code was changed recently on CVS because it caused
server crashes when the unit was killed (and it's struct free'ed).
Your patch reinstates the old behaviour (and the bug).
Please save the unit type in some variable before the
unleash_barbarians() call, and use that instead of the possibly free'ed
unit struct.

Thanks,
