Having taken another look at server/ruleset.c, I've decided that is so
totally not an option. That approach is too ugly - I'm not doing it.

If moving rulesets loading before pregame is not acceptable, then I'd
rather drop that idea, and load only the team names before pregame (in the
teams patch), then properly free() them before loading all the rulesets
after pregame (as now).
