So the bug is that the player's goal is republic, but he isn't able to 
see that since it's too far down the tree.  Instead he thinks some other 
tech is his goal.  That is a bug, and should be fixed.

Don't look at the nations' tech_goals values, though - look at the 
current tech goal.  This goal should be included in the list even if 
it's beyond the limit of 11.
