Summary0006417: Ghosts count as creatures that block constructions
DescriptionA ghost that stands on an in-progress construction will block that construction from being completed as if they were a corporeal creature, despite the fact that ghosts can phase through constructed walls without difficulty.
Steps To ReproduceAttempt to complete a construction while a ghost stands in the same tile. Note your repeated failure.

http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8346 [^] is the save where I noticed the behavior, given for ease of reproduction. After making this save I managed to reproduce this behavior before the ghost moved again, but someone else opening the save might see the ghost move too soon.
