If it won't break anything (which seems to be the case) we're happy to
include it.

I had a problem with this applying in our 2.2.7, but i'll have another
go at it later and see if i can work out what (i) broke.

Bug description:
  In freeciv there is a menu below the cities display (F4, Civilization
  -> Cities). The menu disappears if you're using unity.

  == Ubuntu SRU Justification ==

  The game is nigh unplayable if you cannot have access to Diplomacy and
  Cities menu.  Everyone using GTK+ Freeciv in Unity is affected by
  this.

  Reproduction steps:
   1) Open Freeciv
   2) Start a random scenario
   3) Go to Civilization->Cities in the main menu
   4) You'll see near the bottom of the Cities pane is an empty spot where a menu should be.

  I've uploaded a patch to oneiric and natty-proposed that disables
  global menus entirely.  Please test!
