simple calc sheet with basic mathematical formulae

Fatal error - basic_string::_M_create 

The problem is still the same but it has nothing to do with the filename.
Since my original posting, I have discovered that if any cell contains = and a
basic mathematical operator (eg  +, -, *, /)-
=b2+c2
=b2-c2
=b2*c2
=b2/c2 
any of the above, causes the above fatal error to occur when opening a file
using File | Open in LO v5.1.1.1. (& 5.1.0.3)
As soon as the cells with this basic formula is removed, the file will open
correctly.
If I type b2/c2 into a cell - b2/c2 is displayed as the cell value (as you
would expect) and the file opens correctly. 
If I place = in front (to make it a function/formula)  =b2/c2, and press enter,
LOv5.1.1.1 hangs and I have to force quit LO.
In one of my spreadsheets, I also have the function =counta and this does not
cause a problem, so I do not think there is a problem with the function
operations (ie =). It appears to be associated with one of the basic
mathematical operators.

I have the same setup (as close as possible using synaptic manager on each) on
my PC and notebook. This problem only occurs with LOv5.1+ on my PC, yet
LOv5.0.5.2 on my PC opens the test file correctly; on my notebook, the test
file can be opened correctly using all versions of LO.
My OS is Debian testing. Debian has installed LOv5.0.5,2. I have installed
LOv5.1.1.1 using the same deb packages on both machines. LO is using the latest
java environment (1.8.0_72.internal)
Could my notebook have a package (not installed on my PC) that allows the
mathematical operators in LOV5.1+ to function normally? if so, which one?

I would be very grateful for any advice on how to investigate this problem, why
it is unique to my PC and possible solutions.
Can anyone advise what the fatal error message is referring to?

Many thanks in advance
Neil
