I've followed your steps to capture a crash log however this doesn't
happen. I presume that its for teh same reason as we saw when I ran the
programme in the debugger (  "Program terminated with signal SIGKILL,
Killed.", instead of a SIGSEGV).

What instead happens is that calc rapidly consumes all available memory
on my computer before dying when it runs out.

my laptop has 3GB ram and 3GB swap. I am currently idling at 1.2GB ram
and 500MB swap used. (so 1.7GB/2.5GB free). When I start up calc with
this document it consumes all available RAM and swap at a phenomenal
rate until there is no additional storage left at which point it dies,
and apport fails to gather a crash report.

It could be possible to increase the available swap and repeat this test
on the basis that it may eventually SIGSEGV instead of running out of
resources. I can try this if you think it would be worthwhile?
