Did a little digging into my freeciv-bugs archive, and from my
recollection, the following bugs have not been fixed yet:

 - ship accidentially attack enemy cities while doing goto 
   somewhere else
 - Apollo program bug displays cities that no longer exist
   (conclusion: Apollo should make all squares be seen?)
 - segfault on bad $DISPLAY variable
 - submarine visibility bug

I think the goto and DISPLAY bugs should be fixed before a new release,
otherwise things look good.
