This is old thing, it was present even back in 40d version.

When dwarf has a mood the game will randomly decide whether the magma version of the workshop (forge or glass furnace) is required. The other version can not be claimed after the choosing. So, if the game decides that normal version is required, then the dwarf won't claim the magma one, and vice versa.

I'm actually not sure if this is bug after all, perhaps it's falls to same category with the material requirements, which the game decides more or less randomly.
