Building doesn't ever use treasury?

The advanced unit code (which is where the treasury comes into play) uses
what is known these days as "creative accounting". Thus, before the action,
the side transfers all its assets to the unit in question so that it looks
much richer than it is. Then it immediately takes any remaining assets
back. Check out take_all_from_treasury and give_all_to_treasury in run.c.
