Message:

civserver: plrhand.c:283: found_new_tech: Assertion
`(tech_exists(tech_found) && get_invention(plr, tech_found) !=
TECH_KNOWN) || tech_found == (200-2)' failed.

Problem:

        Two players on a team. They are researching toward Railroad, and one
teammate has Iron Working (name: tempest), the other (for some reason)
*does not* (name: pug), despite being teammates.

        When Theology is finished being researched (it's almost done in the
attached save), the next target technology is Iron Working. Once it
finishes, *the server crashes with that assertion*. A workaround is for
player "tempest" to manually give Iron Working to pug. Interestingly,
the AI knows that "pug" is missing Iron Working and offers it to him
soon before the server asserts -- if you accept, the game continues
unhindered.

        I was working from the perspective of "pug".
