Hi,

Using this table

| Grand total      | 19.55 |    |
|------------------+-------+----|
| <2013-05-09 Thu> |  1.23 | v2 |
| <2013-05-04 Sat> |  5.76 | v1 |
| <2013-05-14 Tue> |  3.78 | v1 |
| <2013-04-24 Wed> |  8.78 | v2 |
#+TBLFM: @1$2=vsum(@I..@>);%.2f

I want the formula to be relative to the first hline so, according to
the manual, it should be possible to change @1$2 into @I-1$2

| Grand total      | 19.55 |    |
|------------------+-------+----|
| <2013-05-09 Thu> |  1.23 | v2 |
| <2013-05-04 Sat> |  5.76 | v1 |
| <2013-05-14 Tue> |  3.78 | v1 |
| <2013-04-24 Wed> |  8.78 | v2 |
#+TBLFM: @I-1$2=vsum(@I..@>);%.2f

But this produces very strange results.
Hitting C-c * with the cursor in @>$2 produces:

| Grand total      | 19.55 |    |
|------------------+-------+----|
| <2013-05-09 Thu> |  1.23 | v2 |
| <2013-05-04 Sat> |  5.76 | v1 |
| <2013-05-14 Tue> |  3.78 | v1 |
| 2939977.00       | 19.55 | v2 |
#+TBLFM: @I-1$2=vsum(@I..@>);%.2f

Why does it change <2013-04-24 Wed> into 2939977.0, and 8.78 into 19.55?

Hitting C-u C-c * with the cursor in @>$2 messes up the complete table
and results in:
|       0.00 |  30.32 |    |
|------------+--------+----|
|       0.00 |  30.32 | v2 |
| 4409973.00 |  59.41 | v1 |
|       0.00 | 113.06 | v1 |
| 7349950.00 | 222.34 | v2 |
#+TBLFM: @I-1$2=vsum(@I..@>);%.2f

Am I correct to assume that this is at least unexpected, and probably
erroneous behaviour?
