I have not seen the terror ship issues. I went over the maps that came
with my CE copy and there are no walk through walls. this could
posibly be a corrupt file on your system.

I have see this Civilian one... once...

this comes from the way xcom does not initialize _any_ data when a
variable is created... some times the when createing the list of
aleins for each combat. it misses the termanating of the last unit
and. then tactical reads the list it sees' some enterys from a
previous combat....

on a side note (dealing with the non initialized variables) when I
installed xcom recently and took a look at some of the temp files. it
had filled up the unused enterys at the end of the files with what
ever was in memory at the time... this included the content of some
websites and a few word documents I had open earlier... talk about an
interesting security problem.  I could just see me send a friend a
copy of a saved game and the soldier.dat file has a copy of my Visa
card number... LOL
