Here's a "fix" for the GTK client only.

The code is pretty ugly and doesn't give great results.  This draws the
city description on top of (not above) the city; I found that less
confusing than drawing the text above the city.  But by removing the #if
0...#endif around the commented piece of the patch this can be reversed.

Another alternative is that when there are polar cities,
EXTRA_BOTTOM_ROW is increased so that we have the extra real estate down
there to see their names.
