Summary0003953: Dead dwarf becomes ghost twice, and ceases to exist
DescriptionIn a time of great chaos in the fort, I failed to put up monuments immediately to honor the fallen. One of them became a ghost (forlorn), and was put to rest when I constructed a monument.

Then, during a tantrum, a dwarf knocked over the monument, and several minutes later I noticed the ghost again. It was a different kind of ghost this time (murderous), but it only lasted several moments before disappearing. By that time, all of the dwarves that he had known in life were also dead. In the Relationships screen of his wife, he wasn't listed as "Ghostly Wrestler", but only by name, and had no view screen, as though he didn't exist at all. His name did not reappear in the Unit list either.
Steps To ReproduceGet a ghost.
Build a monument to them.
Remove monument, and wait.

This might be a feature and not a bug but it would require Toady's input to make sure.
