I don't understand. These units have been in cities with barracks
while updating. But need they?

Coming to the point: Freeciv does not keep veteran status while
upgrading with Leonardo's, due to compatability to Civ 2. See

http://rt.freeciv.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=726

This behaviour is IMHO a *bug*, as well in Civ2 as in Freeciv.
I think we really don't need to stress compatability this much,
and fix it, as we did with other Civ2 bugs.
