So, what do we do about this? Keep playing and assume it messed up both teams? Start another game knowing about the "gifting" glitch and how to avoid it being a problem?

I vote to continue the game.
After all, the things are starting to be Hot, and don't want to miss the opportunity to blow your planets with my Cloak 3 ships!

About the bug itself accepting a Gift/Trade, I think that if you don't write something into the text (leave the standard message), when you go to Accept, then, you will not receive the Gift/Trade.

After 2 times trying to accept a Gift without results, it worked when I wrote something into the text.... and was not my Last action into the turn.

EDIT: was trying to reproduce the bug in my computer running a simultaneous game between 2 human players, different machines.
All my efforts were futile... the Gift always worked fine!
Even without write a reply or doing more actions after accept the gift... will continue working trying to find the pattern.
