40d had similar issues with crossbows and crafts as well. It would be helpful if someone could verify whether these are still around.

# 000104 □ [dwarf mode][jobs][items] (http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=6744.0 [^]) bone stacks of any size create one bone x-bow (lye/bone crafts also reported)

Not sure about crossbows, but bone crafts flat-out don't work, like shell crafts. Nothing is produced, and the bone/shell isn't used up.

I can confirm that crossbows are taking only one bone per crossbow.

Back in 40d, bones and shells were a distinct item type (with stack size and everything), but version 0.31 merged them into the CORPSEPIECE item type which keeps track of how much of each "type" of material is present (e.g. a severed leg could have bones, shells, AND horn/hoof) and doesn't actually set the "stack size" on said items (it 'fakes' it by explicitly formatting it into the item name when it's only made of a single material).

As a result, every job which uses bone/shell/ivory/horn needs special logic to use this special "stack size", and this is one of the cases which is missing that special logic.
