0007909: Burrow-assigned dwarves stuck with barrels after drinking last drink
Sometimes when a dwarf in a burrow drinks the last unit of a drink from a barrel, that dwarf gets a job to store the now-empty barrel somewhere outside of the burrow and starts producing "cancels store item in stockpile: dropoff inaccessible" message spam. It's necessary to forbid the barrel until the dwarf drops it, then unforbid the barrel and the dwarf won't pick it up again.
Assign dwarves into a burrow with a stocked drink stockpile and wait.
I've been experiencing this bug for as long as burrows have been in the game, but I only recently searched for a report on it and realized I couldn't find one. I was going to wait to open an issue until I had a save to post, but I see Toady's been getting into burrow-related and message-spam bugs lately and wanted to make sure he knows about this one.

Yes. My bad, didn't look far enough back in the search results. You can close this as a duplicate of that.
