Colonial independence culture bug.

I just thought I would share this bug that I just discovered.

The Russians just granted independence to several of their colonial cities allowing the Celtic nation to be formed. Suddenly, a bunch of my cities went from 100% French, to 60% French/40% Celtic.

Most of the effected cities were previously Egyptian cities that I had conquered (I annihilated the entire Egyptian empire).

Anyway this is reproducible and I have attached the Save games from both the turn prior to the founding of the Celts, and the turn that they were founded.

Cities to look at:
Thebes, Memphis, Heliopolis, (basically all of the French cities with Egyptian names, in the North East of the main continent).

As a result many of my cities are now crying out: "We yearn to join our motherland!", even though those cities form part of my core motherland.

Oh, 1 more thing: I am playing with Civ4 BTS patched to version 3.13.

Yeah I had the same problem, except it was even worse. I annihilated the ethiopians as the dutch, and had sent caravels west and east. A few turns after I discovered the French, they simultaneously declared war on me and created the byzantine empire. All of the ethiopian cities I had conquered are now mostly byzantine, even though the byzantine are actually on a distant island, and some of them are very unhappy because I still have war weariness from the conflict I just resolved, and it's back at the same level with the new war, plus them wanting to join the motherland. What's hilarious is that this is an archipelago map, and no french units can reach me... What's interesting is that the city that the ethiopians had gifted to me remains 100% dutch in its inner circle, but the outer parts of the fat cross are half byzantine...
 
Today I had the same results after I crushed Elizabeth & Hammurabi. Now 75% of my continent want back to Willem van Oranje and Hatshepsut.

It's only a few % because I did my war before 0 C.E. and the colonies show up in the 19th century.

I wasn't aware of this problem, and went to civfanatics.com
