whowww!, a real blow up of thoughts and work on this problem :-)  ... and hope
... 

sorry, at this moment i don't have time to check every step by myself, thus
pls. be indulgent if i'm off the track with any point mentioned in this
comment, just some thoughts: 

@matthewnote at yahoo.co.uk: :-)   your idea and analysis looks very promising,
especial 'random fails dependent on actual view' could explain the
reproductibility problem of plenty bugs, pls. keep going, 

"150 EUR prize" - i remember i offered money to get rid of faults but couldn't
find it in this thread, if your efforts lead to a solution - mustn't be
complete but just any significant enhancement - ask for three times that money
and you'll get it, 

something in the discussion goes in the direction of 'error dependent on re-use
of broken files cluttered by old LO versions', that may be right but didn't
come to my mind when filing the original bug(s), 

@MichaelMeeks: "If there is an issue that is reproducible, and is not related
to iteration - then I'm really interested in it =) is this one ?" 
yes it is! - without iterations, i just mentioned iterations as another field
where progress is hindered by the ways LO and bugs currently work and where
other approaches could possibly bring improvements, this bug and all the others
i'd file about autocalculate fails and probably depending on shared formulas is
/ are totally independent of the iteration settings ... afaik, 
ni it isn't - reproducible, that's the big issue, i'd frequently step in issues
which are fails and re-occur similarely, but are not 'reproducible on command',
:-( 

"Hi Matthew, this is a franken-bug since it mentions iteration - and so gets
ignored." - that explains much ... to me ... being ignored :-( ... but, again,
this bug is not in any way about iterations, it's about autocalculate fails
probably dependent on 'shared formulas' appearing also with 'threaded off'
contrary to being assumed dependent on threaded or parallelized calculations
being set 'on', 

@Telesto: thanks for your help and understanding, they helped me to stay on
board, i'm not sure if i would have done without ...
