unit test failure in forms module, something do with com.sun.star.form.control.FixedText

[Noel Grandin]

Hi

I'm fighting a "make check" failure on a clean master build, running 
under 64-bit Ubuntu.

The failure is inside:
    make JunitTest_forms_unoapi

The error message looks like:
xwarn:legacy.osl:28578:327:svx/source/sdr/contact/viewobjectcontactofunocontrol.cxx:1245: 
caught an exception!
     in function:static bool 
sdr::contact::ViewObjectContactOfUnoControl_Impl::createControlForDevice
    type: com.sun.star.uno.RuntimeException
    message: unsatisfied query for interface of type 
com.sun.star.awt.XControl

The object that is being queried is an SdrUnoObject, which has an 
aUnoControlTypeName member which reads "com.sun.star.form.control.FixedText"

The
    ViewObjectContactOfUnoControl_Impl::createControlForDevice
method is called from
    ViewObjectContactOfUnoControl_Impl::impl_ensureControl_noThrow
which gets the pUnoObject field by calling
    getUnoObject
which calls
    ViewContactOfSdrObj::TryToGetSdrObject
which calls
    GetSdrObject
which returns the
    mrObject
field.

 From there, following the constructor call stack back gets me to
   SdrUnoObj::setUnoControlModel
which is called from the Java unit test code.

Using GDB, I find that something in the unit test code is passing an 
awt::XControlModel UNO object to SvxShapeControl::setControl()
That XControlModel is returning "com.sun.star.form.control.FixedText" 
when called like this:
  beans::XPropertySet::getPropertyValue("DefaultControl")

Grepping through the source code, "com.sun.star.form.control.FixedText" 
is only found in
    forms/source/inc/services.hxxx
but the global constants declared there are not used anywhere else 
(confirmed by removing them and rebuilding).

Nothing seems to actually implement this service.

Any ideas?
