Summary0007919: Designating long channel causes miners to freeze
DescriptionI noticed this, then my fort blew up so I killed it and loaded an old save.
Essentially if you designate a long channel at some point the miners will become "Stuck" they say they're channelling out a space, some spaces will be blinking, but nobody is moving and the last spaces aren't getting channelled. To solve this I had to d-x remove the designation on the last squares and then redesignate them.

If you go to Z level 96 on my save at the top you'll see 3 miners stuck, and 2 squares blinking. This is the same thing that happened in the previous game when I mass designated that line to be channelled out. I tried it twice in the same spot (dug out the area first, then laid out the channel) and it happened both times.

Thanks! (For future reference, you can link to issues by placing a # in front of the issue ID - for example, # 7825 with no space produces 0007825.)
