Well, I'm trying anyway.

This new command is a huge savings, about 4 times faster!

But this is got a little messy.  The new fcsav2ppm doesn't work with
a FREECIV_PATH pointing to a 1.14.2 ruleset because the cities.ruleset
doesn't contain [specialist].

0: There must be exactly 3 types of specialist.

So...

I commented out the:
if (nval != SP_COUNT) {
  freelog(LOG_FATAL, "There must be exactly %d types of specialist.",
    SP_COUNT);
  exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} 

in the fcsav2ppm main/ruleset.c source and everything seems to be working.

Got it installed in picture-civgame.
