Doesn't happen for me, so it may be world-specific.

Can you upload a save to http://dffd.wimbli.com/ [^]

Could not reproduce.

Tried this on multiple savegames and multiple buildings, but I didn't crash or note any unintended effects.

Debian 7.5
uname -a:
Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 <POUND>1 SMP Debian 3.2.57-3+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Process:
1) Fresh unpack of Dwarf Fortress 0.40.1 SDL from http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/df_40_01_linux.tar.bz2 [^]
2) Fresh unpack of region1.7z from http://dffd.wimbli.com/download.php?id=8813&f=region1.7z [^]
3) Press ESC 3 times (to get past intro), then choose "Continue Playing."
4) Load region1, "Nokzamanam"
5) (Leave paused) Immediately press "q" and search for buildings.
6) A farm plot is near enough, and highlights with flashing.
7) TAB. Behaves normally.
8) Wood stockpile to the east. TAB. Behaves normally.
9) Carpenter's Workshop to the east. TAB. Behaves normally.
10) "a" to add. TAB. Behaves normally.
11) Press ENTER to choose "Make wooden shield." TAB. Behaves normally.
12) Depot to the east. Similar tests, all normal.

Willing to retest if further information becomes available.

EDIT: changed '#' to '<POUND>' to stop forum from thinking I refer to bug 0000001.

In my tests, after pressing TAB once (to look for the issue), I then pressed TAB enough times to reset my view to the default. Are you using the SDL or Legacy version? Do you get the same issue if you take your save file to another computer?

Ooh. Duplicated original bug!
Windows 7 Pro SP1 32bit, updates current.

Same process as with Linux, except on Windows:
1) Fresh unpack of Dwarf Fortress 0.40.01 SDL Win from http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/df_40_01_win_s.zip [^] (0.40.02 would not load the save file from 0.40.01)
2) Fresh unpack of region1.7z from http://dffd.wimbli.com/download.php?id=8813&f=region1.7z [^]
3) Press ESC 3 times (to get past intro), then choose "Continue Playing."
4) Load region1, "Nokzamanam"
5) (Leave paused) Immediately press TAB. Crash!

Test B) = no crash
Same Windows Process as Test A, except, did not use region1.7z:
1) Fresh unpack of Dwarf Fortress 0.40.01 SDL Win from http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/df_40_01_win_s.zip [^] (0.40.02 would not load the save file from 0.40.01)
2) Create new world (World Size Small, History Short, all other options default).
3) Start New Game, immediately press "e" to Embark, then ENTER to Play Now.
4) Immediately press TAB (several times). Behaves normally.
5) "q" on wagon. TAB works.
6) Dismantled wagon, built carpenter workshop. TAB works.

Test C) = no crash
Same Windows Process as Test B, except, with 0.40.02:
1) Fresh unpack of Dwarf Fortress 0.40.02 SDL Win from http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/df_40_02_win_s.zip [^]

Perhaps Orkel can provide a save for 0.40.02?

Windows 7 Pro SP1 32bit, updates current. Fresh unpack of SDL 0.40.02.

With Orkel's 0.40.02 save, I confirm the same behavior:

EDIT: I thought to differentiate whether this could be related to some key-binding oddity, so I wanted to change the "menu move" key from TAB, but can't find any place to change that key.

EDIT: When using a fresh unpack of Legacy 0.40.02, loading this save and pressing TAB, DF freezes (instead of crashing with an error message).

Loading this save in Linux and pressing TAB works fine:

The arrival of mystery babies seems to be causing all of the tab problems. That part is fixed. Mystery babies are still out in the wild.
