I see. The solution is to use unit.c:test_unit_move_to_tile in
pft.c:normal_move_unit. However this isn't easy since we don't have
the unit type which test_unit_move_to_tile
wants. test_unit_move_to_tile needs this for the marines flag.

Greg: you may now see why I prefered a flags field in pf_parameter
instead of the zoc_used field.

My proposal is to add this field, remove zoc_used and replace
"Unit_Type_id type" with "move_type, flags". Do you agree?
