        I am aware of this, so I'm not. I'd still like to fix the bugs
though, as FreecivAC needs a different calendar system, and I don't see
anybody else writing the code.

That's easy; startyear 2001AD, 1 year/turn.

        Nope. Andi's original code had this in, and I saw no need to
remove it.
