Works in m12 and OpenOffice.org 3.0.1 Release Candidate 1 (build
OOO300_m14) as well. (RC1 should be available on the extended mirrors by
tomorrow).

One thing that I find is, if I enter:

=SUM($A$1:A1)

in the B1 cell it works just fine (I just copied & pasted from your
post). However, if I enter the same in the input bar, the data in the
cell becomes text: =SUM($A$1:A1). But if I first click the = icon
(function icon) on the input bar and then past: SUM($A$1:A1) if works
properly. Can you no longer just enter '=' followed by a function in the
input bar?
