I don't think Glyph of Reincarnation is a steal creature spell, but again the rule text is so confusing...

As I read it, it is a steal spell so long as the creature destroyed was stolen. So if AI steals humans creature, it attacks and is blocked by a wall and human casts Glyph of Reincarnation then human gets a creature from AI's gy. But if AI attacks with his own creature, it's blocked by a wall and the glyph is used, then AI gets a creature from his own gy.

That right?

This card kills all creatures that are blocked by a wall, but as recompense it then allows the controller of the destroyed creature the ability to reanimate something from its graveyard for each creature killed.

If it is killing AI creatures, but then giving the player the reanimated creatures then this is incorrect.

Right, the american education system's lack of grammar strikes again.

So to clarify the bug, currently it doesn't matter who controls the creature that died, the caster of the glyph gets a creature from his opponent's gy (works this way for AI and human).

Also, the hint bar says target blocking wall when it should just be target wall, and this glyph shouldn't be cast during declare blockers step (like the others) but after combat is resolved (so walls that are killed in combat can't be targeted by this glyph). Or is this an engine limitation?

Fixed the first bug in a4c3a01
The second is not properly a bug, it's just an approximation for the atrocious wording of the Glyphs, as we've no way of knowing who blocked who after combat, so you'll chose target wall after the blockers are declared, it's not big deal.

If player attacks and is blocked by a wall and casts Glyph of Reincarnation on blocking wall then attacking creature is NOT destroyed and creature you choose from opponent's gy is put into play under opp control.

If AI attacks player and attacker is blocked by a wall and player cast Glyph of Reincarnation on blocking wall then attacking creature blocked by wall is destroyed and creature from opp gy is put into play under opp control.

So if I read this card right (highly doubtful) then if player casts the glyph on his own wall it works fine but if he casts it on AI's wall then it is all messed up.
