Please use 2.0.8 anyway, see

  http://www.freeciv.org/index.php/More_distributions

or use the new Beta 1 if possible.

This is normal. The civclient crashed and the civserver, running in the
background, runs on for 1 second. It switches your player over to AI
control, and the AI does some (more or less) stupid things. The second
(later) savegame has been saved after this.
