Calculated fields bug - causes a Gpf in rt.dll (Reporter Specific)

I have a reporter report which has a couple of calculated fields.
If I run the report from my OpenInsight application (or from the repository) , I get a message saying "Could not create the folowing formula" followed by the formula code for each of my formulas. I then get a Gpf in rt.dll. The report previews fine in Reporter.
After a fair amount of trial and error, I have been able to work around the problem by ensuring that all database fields referenced in my formulas are actually displayed on the report.
For example, here is one of my formulas:
RTRIM$ (EMPLOYEE!GIVEN_NAMES) + " " + RTRIM$ (EMPLOYEE!SURNAME)
If I make sure GIVEN_NAMES and SURNAME are actually displayed somewhere in the report layout, the report runs fine from my application. To ensure these fields dont actually display on the report, I can make these fields very small so they wont print, move them to a section that is hidden (like the report footer), or make the font colour white.
Anyone else experienced this problem ?
Is there a scheduled bug fix for this problem ?
