Summary0006169: Mason stands on top of wall being constructed, suspends construction
DescriptionEverytime when I unsuspend the construction of any wall that has been suspended because of a creature occupying the site, my masons walk to the same square as the wall being constructed before trying to finish the job. Because he's now occupying the same square as the wall, he can't finish the construction, and thus suspends it. Unsuspending the construction just leads to a repetition of the proceedure, and the only way to break the cycle is to remove the building and start over.
Steps To ReproduceHave a dwarf construct a wall in a place that's occupied by another creature, so that the construction is suspended. Move away the creature and unsuspend the construction.
Additional Informationhttp://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=6778 [^]
At the time of saving, the mason is working/standing on top of the wall in the lower left corner of the fortress entrance, just below the trade depot.

Oh, and I forgot to point out that manually suspending the construction of the wall isn't enough to trigger this bug. I haven't tested if forbidden/marked-for-dumping/tasked objects being in the way triggers it as well.

This appears to be a duplicate of issue 0005991. There are already several duplicate reports of it; you can use the search feature on the "view issues" page before reporting to cut down on the necessary dupe management.

I have bad experiences with search features in general (never seems to work right), but serves me right for being lazy, I guess...
