(Actually this was found on OOo 2.3.1 but can't seem to select that in the Bug
Reporting tool yet)

Calc crashes when using a macro containing errors to generate list of values.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM
1. Open a new Calc spreadsheet, and define a macro with some errors in it such 
as:
Sub SubContainingErrors
   ' Some random text that BASIC won't understand
   This Is Not Code
End Sub

2. Select a cell, and goto Data -> Validity
3. In 'Allow', enter 'Cell Range'; and for 'Source', enter
'SubContainingErrors()'; also ensure that 'Show Selection List' is checked.
4. OK the Validity dialog.
5. Click on the dropdown for the cell. The BASIC Interpreter generates a few
errors, then Calc informs the user of an unexpected crash.

PROPOSED SOLUTION
Instead of crashing, the BASIC Interpreter should just generate the runtime
errors then allow the user to continue working on the spreadsheet / fix the 
macro.
