Oh yeah, definitely. Over several forts, I've had several dwarfs bedecked with all sorts of useless bone crap.

There was the one guy 95 years old 97 (or 79) killss with so much jewelry it should've counted as armour. Part of it got stolen by giant kea's eventually.

I can't help but think they stole his face too.

No, the clothing bug is not fixed.

Dwarves can arrive wearing jewelery, in the same way that they arrive wearing clothing.  The jewelry appears to be trophies from kills they made during world gen.  This appears to be a side effect of the fact that immigrants can be drawn from historic populations now.  Historic figures have always worn trophy jewelry made from things they'd killed, we just never saw it on immigrants before this version.

Because they never had a kill count, because before this release migrants were generated out of nothing.

Not necessarily. You could depopulate smaller civs without careful monitoring of the situation.

Ah, yes, but! The migrants themselves didn't have any historical background, and were themselves pretty much as random as forgotten beasts.

Just as big a problem if you were already full to bursting.
