[Bug 220268] [NEW] gnumeric crashes when formatting dates to mmmmm or mmmmm-yy

[Susannah Burrows]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnumeric

I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 (hardy heron) and gnumeric version
1.8.2-1ubuntu1.

I can't seem to reproduce this bug from a fresh worksheet, so I have
attached one that allows the bug to be reproduced.

Steps to reproduce:

1) open the attached worksheet in gnumeric
2) select all of column A
3) choose format cells... -> Date -> mmmmm or mmmmm-yy

What should happen: The cells are reformatted as specified
What happens: gnumeric crashes with a segmentation fault.

The output from gdb debugger is below.
