Water from aquifers seems to turn all the walls it touches into aquifer; they become designated as "wet" and mining into them has normal aquifer effects. This is happening on a glacier map where an aquifer was present in only a third of the region.

I'll post again when I have the save uploaded.

Originally, only the farthest right aquifer bit was actually aquifer, along with the four adjacent tiles. Anyway, the lever opens that door and lets the water in.

Any wall with adjacent water will flash wet as a warning, and if you mine it out, that water will flow out.  Is that what's going on?  The aquifer square itself will flow out water out into these squares if it can.

I can't seem to make it happen again; when it happened the first time, the room was filled with 3/7 water and when I took out a wall it managed to fill the whole area to 6/7 before I exited. I'm running in Linux under Wine, and that save isn't exactly how it was set up; I had to make some parts over again from memory. Anyway, it doesn't seem to be a general problem, and might very well have been some sort of oversight on my part (although I'm sure I closed the door before mining, I'm not entirely sure of the way I constructed the system in the first place).

I saw this myself. 
 

 
Here is what I have.

one Z level down
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
X    X       X
X    F       X

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
 
F = closed Flood Gate(after filling resevoir for well...)
U = Stairs up to Aquifer one Z level up.
u/d = Stairs to d/u
C = Channel

 
anyways... At first I thought the well was over flooding... So I loaded from a saved game,
and added the Flood gate.  Even with the flood gate closed I had water gushing from the Well(?)
