I got Children of the Nile for Christmas and it is great. I started with the tutorials and noticed something that makes me laugh a lot :D. When 4 workers are ready to haul 1 block of limestone from the quarry to the area in front of the quarry, they walk through previous blocks waiting to be moved to the pyramid and the limestone goes too. Bug?

More like a pathfinding shortcut. The block disappears too?

Nope. they go through the block of limestone the haulers already have mined
Perhaps it's a bug, or perhaps it's just a 'feature'. No game is perfect, even if some people say otherwise. :D I love CoTN and I really don't mind such little things like this. It might be one of those things the devs know but they didn't do anything about it since it would have taken too much of their valuable time considering it doesn't 'do' anything like people getting stuck in the game. I admit it is a bit of a surprise when you see it for the first time.

I noticed this, too. By that time though I had about 50 blocks of limestone waiting to go to the pyramid. The workers would just go to whichever one the computer decided was the "right" one for them to take, even if it were surrounded by a bunch of other blocks, and when they got there they would drag it out of the pack and off to the pyramid. Perhaps Thoth knows why...
