        Hey ! - so unit tests are -never- useless, particularly if they are
fast, small and run during the build. Indeed - I would -love- to have
much more unit test coverage of calc.

        It would be simply excellent if we could find a way of doing this. One
thing I would strongly recommend is not trying to create your own,
stand-alone unit test harness, but instead building on top of an
existing test by adding a new test method in sc/qa/unit/ucalc.cxx :-)
[ indeed, reading that it is encouraging to see the growth in
unit-testage there particularly for data-pilots etc. ;-].

        Anyhow - thanks for your work !

        Regards,

                Michael.
