0002295: Removing frozen screw pump causes whole power train to be labeled "Frozen elsewhere"
I had a frozen screw pump. I then dismantled it, cleared the ice and rebuilt it. Everything that was previously connected to it, including itself, was labeled "Frozen Elsewhere".
1. Connect at least two parts which use power, one of which is a screw pump.
2. Freeze the screw pump's input tile.
3. Dismantle the screw pump, mine out the ice and rebuild it.
No tags attached.

Ok...more information:
* It was only one part of the machine that was stuck on "Frozen Elsewhere"
* I discovered that by repeatedly deconstructing parts until none were marked "Frozen Elsewhere"
* That part was a gear assembly.
* So apparently this bug is random.

Known bug from the old system:
# 000392 □ [dwarf mode][buildings][machines] (http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=6839.0 [^]) even after frozen gear assembly is removed, machine frozen state not updated, and frozen parts can start moving

Some other reports:

Is the method for reproducing the bug successful at least sometimes?
