Indeed, it is rather a bug.  Disbanding a full carrier "seems" to
destroy all the units it carries.  In reality these units have been
moved out of the carrier, but the client doesn't know about it yet. 
Thus punit->transported_by is set to some obscure value and the client
decides not to draw the unit.  This can persist for quite a while (one
turn) until the next packet is sent for this unit.
