0002106: Unmeltable ice floors
I had constructed some walls over ponds, and later decided to dismantle them, in a desperate bid to un-flood that part of the world. While they were capped, the water beneath them froze and melted. When I took off the stone floors, the ice ones were still there. I waited through a freeze and thaw, and it became ice walls! Channeling causes it to smash down into the pools as expected. Testing with dropping a wall in... Creates "Unknown" in blue when loo[k]ed at, as well as "Water [5/7]"

PS: This is a reclaim fort, the floors MIGHT have been put there pre-reclaim, might not. I don't remember.
Floor off a seasonally-freezing murky pool, and a few years later, un-floor it.

Might need to abandon and reclaim after flooring.
This is weird stuff, and possibly a symptom of underlying issues, hence upped priority. Minor sev because it affects little of gameplay directly.
No tags attached.
