If the miner would do a pathing check prior to placing an object he can't move through to see if he could somehow walk around it, that would solve this sort of issue.

I don't remember the thread, but we've talked this one out.  Just tracking the direction the dwarf came from should be sufficient.  Now it's just a matter of doing it...
