In fact the game proceeded for many turns.  Eventually I went to attack
the city then.  My initial attacks failed.  But on the first successful
attack (that killed a unit inside) I guess I got a new short city packet
and finally saw that the city was enemy-owned.  Now I could see that the
city was owned by the enemy.

I believe this city was originally owned by the enemy, then conquered by
me.  So the last short city packet received would probably have been
right before I conquered it.  Is it possible this is a delta bug?  I
don't really know how the delta is calculated but if the server thought
I already had all the information in the short city packet (since it was
the same as the last short city packet, and delta didn't know about full
city packets) I could imagine that this might happen.
