If you place a trapdoor and open it, then place a block by it and break that, the trapdoor closes. I found this out when building my mob grinder in creative to tests it and then in sutrvival when building it. I used the search in order to make sure that no issues have already been created about this.

Unable to reproduce in 12w50a. That issue was fixed in MC-218.
Fence gate, yes, still reproducable, see MC-1522.
So do doors and fence gates.
Been around for a while now.
