i've seen this happen but only when ive been in the process of editing bdats or tinkering around with the world.. If you create a gather item building with stones in it, for instance, when you add it to the world it creates a 'stones' slot in the building record. If later the building is changed to just produce 'wood', the stones slot will still show even tho it isnt in the bdat anymore.
This can be fixed by a) only adding buildings when they're done properly and b) using the *resetallbuildings command to clear out all the stock lists of all buildings. (Obviously this isnt a good idea on an active or played-on world :] )
I dunno if this is definitely the issue you raise here - there may be others - but i'll mark as 'not a bug' for now - please reply to the thread if you still have issues with it that seem to be different from the situation described above.
