--- Comment #6 from antifascist <[email protected]> ---
I accidentally added a duplicate of this bug as bug 157466 - autofill of
ascending references fails with non-sequential cell references.

In case my different wording of this bug is helpful, here it is, copied from my
duplicate bug:

Description:
Working example, followed by non-working example:

Autofill function works correctly with sequential ascending cell references.
Example:
Create spreadsheet as follows:
A1: meow
A2: woof
A3: cluck
A4: moo
A5: bark

B1: =A1
B2: =A2

You may now select B1 and B2, and then you may drag the the fill handle in the
bottom right corner of the selection across the cells B3, B4, and B5, and
release the mouse button.

Result:  The cells B3, B4, and B5 will auto-fill correctly, showing values of
"cluck", "moo", and "bark" respectively.  Column B now contains these cell
references:

B1: =A1
B2: =A2
B3: =A3
B4: =A4
B5: =A5

Autofill of ascending references fails with non-sequential cell references.
Example:
Creat spreadsheet as follows:

A1: cat says
A2: meow
A3: dog says
A4: woof
A5: chicken says
A6: cluck
A7: cow says 
A8: moo
A9: dog says
A10: bark

B1: =A2
B2: =A4

You may now select B1 and B2, and then you may drag the the fill handle in the
bottom right corner of the selection across the cells B3, B4, and B5, and
release the mouse button.

Result:  The cells B3, B4, and B5 will auto-fill incorrectly, showing values of
"woof", "cluck", and "cluck" respectively.  Column B now contains these cell
references:

B1: =A2
B2: =A4
B3: =A4
B4: =A6
B5: =A6

The expected behavior would have been for column B to instead contain these
cell references:

B1: =A2
B2: =A4
B3: =A6
B4: =A8
B5: =A10
