Summary0009100: Metal (zinc) furniture counts towards rock furniture manager job
DescriptionI tested only zinc vs. rock armor stands and weapon racks, but it may work with other metals and furniture types.

The issue is that when a blacksmith completes a zinc armor stand or weapon rack from a manager job, but another job for rock furniture of the same type is higher in the manager's orders, then the counter for the rock furniture will be decremented, instead of the counter for the zinc furniture. The result is that fewer rock items and more metal items are created than were requested.
Steps To ReproduceTo reproduce this easily from scratch in a new world (avoid aquifer):

1. Embark with a pick, an anvil, some provisions, some fireproof rock or metal, some (at least 6) zinc bars, some (at least 2) coke or charcoal and some (at least 2) wood or rock. Easiest to just take more fireproof rock. Skills or labor preferences required are carpenter or mason, metalsmith (aka blacksmith) and miner.
2. Build a forge from fireproof rock or metal. Build a carpenter's or mason's shop and make a chair/throne.
3. Dig out a small room.
4. Place the chair/throne inside the room.
5. Designate a manager.
6. Create a room around the chair/throne and assign it to the manager.
7. Issue manager order to create any largish number of rock armor stands, e.g. 10.
8. Issue another order to create one zinc armor stand.
9. Wait for some time and look at the forge. If you waited long enough and nothing interfered, the blacksmith will have created multiple zinc armor stands, despite the order of making only one.
