Bug Description

Create a simple spreadsheet and apply the auto filter. Apply one of the filters on one of the columns. If you delete two colums and then try to delete some more or even remove filters Calc will crash. This does not happen with the official build from OOo's website. Happens with the Edgy packages and the backports to Dapper-proposed (tested on two separate machines of each release).

If you open this spreadsheet and apply the autofilter. You should be able to delete up to three rows. If you delete four or more Calc hangs with Adapt Row Height in the status bar. I'll add a screenshot too from Edgy Eft, the packages in dapper-proposed also hang on large row deletes. After deleting a small number of rows the autofilter is messed up, e.g. giving two instances of Y.

Interesting deleting them without the auto filter on works fine.

Happens here on ppc with current dapper-proposed packages as well.

Could this all be related to this patch that has is now redundant in ooo-build as it has been fixed in the official builds (as of at least 2.0.2, possibly earlier)?
