client crashes: I don't want to mess with SIGSEGV handlers. So the
                server will survive.

the rest: 
two possibilities:
1. Popup: "Do you want to save the game?"

2. Menu item (Game menu) "Quit/End game" and "Quit client" instead of
  "Quit" when
   civclient has started the server. I think that would cause less
   confusion. Users, who don't understand what a client is, won't
   touch "Quit client".
