I am trying to reproduce this one, but not having much luck. There is
one time in another game (when I was testing something else) that I
might have seen the behavior you describe. However, with the Standard
game, I have had no luck reproducing it.

When you say you "canceled" a build task, do you mean you interrupted a
build in progress to build something else, or that when you were
selecting something to build in the user interface that hit the Escape
key, thereby canceling your selection?

Also, after canceling a build task, did you try building the same type
of unit again later or a different type?
