This is easily be fixed if the savegame version handling is done correctly
...

Good analysis! I moved the loading of the citizens information after the city
is registered - thus citizens_update() can be called without problems.

It is doing exactly that now ;-) I did added some code to remove the citizens
information if an old savegame should be saved but nothing to add it to old
savegames ...

The naming should be read as:

compat_load_020400() - load _pre_ 2.4.0 savegame
compat_save_020400() - save _pre_ 2.4.0 savegame

So perhaps the functions should be renamed and the original 2.3 version can
be removed (set to NULL in the compat array). 

patch attached:


fix savegame citizens handling

* fix error message "City size and number of citizens does not match (8 !=
0)! Repairing ..." by creating dummy citizens information for 2.3.0 savegames
* fix assert "assertion 'city_from_great_wonder(pimprove) == pcity' failed."
by moving the loading of citizens data after the city was registered
