I had an array formula that referenced range which contained blank cells - this caused exception, because method evaluateFormulaCellValue did not expect BlankEval. Interestingly enough, this does not happen in normal formulas (Blank cell evaluates to NumberEval[0]).
I traced this behavior to WorkbookEvaluator::defererenceResult(ValueEval, OperationEvaluationContext) which branches, depending whether this is AreaEval or not. Part for non-AreaEval (method dereferenceResult(ValueEval,int,int) ) swaps BlankEval for NumberEval.ZERO and part for AreaEval does not.
I checked in LibreOffice and expected behavior seems to be that ref to blank cell evalulates to zero (both in array and non-array formula), so I copied this logic to dereferenceResult(ValueEval, OperationEvaluationContext) - I wanted to move it completely, but method dereferenceResult(ValueEval,int,int) is public and used by other class, so removing this piece of code might influence its behavior.
