Non-aging abstract unit bug, I'd assume.

Maybe they forgot to bring an important body part with them…

Yes.

I know for sure that this could happen in past versions, however its very rare. That is a historical dwarf would get a wound that shouldve been mortal in historical generation (completely wrecked neck, destroyed lungs or head) but they didnt die for some reason. However as they arrived to the fort as a migrant they just die instantly due to the missing vital functions.
