Public bug reported:

gcalctool 6.2.0-0ubuntu2 is a great tool to copy, past and calculate
formula from a document. Normally, false syntax causes a error message,
for example "1+1W+1" --> ERROR. That is OK.

But the result of "1+1Ω+1" is NOT "error" but "2"!

The charakter above is "Omega", but it is the same with other special
characters, for example "no-break space". All characters after the
special charakter are ignored.

By the way: A nice feature after fix this bug: Immediately marking red
and ignoring all caracters which not needed for calculation. For
example: 12 V x 2 A --> 24.
