While building a tower, I noticed you could b-C-walls out of stone, then carve a fortification out of it and poof. More stone. Bug?

[Dorten]

What do you mean by "more stone"?

[gtmattz]

Carving fortifications should not produce stone...

And I just went and replicated the scenario in the OP and there was no mystery stone created after carving said fortification into said constructed wall.

Maybe the constructed wall had a loose stone on top of it, and when changed to a fortification the stone fell down?  Fortifications don't have floors above them.

[Quietust]

Only constructed fortifications lack floors above them - carved fortifications, even those carved from constructed walls, retain the floor above them.

[Sphalerite]

There was a bug reported in 40d where you could simultaneously designate a constructed wall for deconstruction and carving into fortifications, resulting (if the dwarves did it with the right timing) in both constructed fortifications and the original stone back.  I don't know if this bug has been fixed, and didn't put much effort into testing or trying to reproduce it.
