This is fixable in buildings.ruleset.  The effect should only be active 
if a factory is present.  Or probably the effect should be split 50-50 
among factory and mfg plant.  Patch wanted.  And, how should this be 
done for civ2 and civ1?

  There's no strong reason to make it impossible but it is a bit cleaner.
