A "PTG" is a "Parse Thing"...  No kidding.  We didn't come up with this
phrasing BTW :-)

This warning is serious, it means you're parsing a spreadsheet with formulas
that we can't yet understand because they use PTGs that we don't understand.
The way to make this go away is to help up implement them by:

1. giving us samples including them (attach them to a bug in bugzilla)
2. possibly helping implement them.

It shouldn't make a difference as long as you don't mess with the formulas
in cells 18,0 and 16,2...we'll just write them where they are.  The main
implication is that we "give" in parsing that formula.
