I'm beginning to wonder if upgrading to 8.3.1 is a mistake. I had no
trouble at all with 8.2.10, but many problems with 8.3.1. My latest
issue follows.
We appreciate your bug reports. If you have got the time, please keep
testing Org 8.3 and let us know about errors you find.
When I update a table (using C-u C-c *, or C-u C-c C-c, or M-x
org-table-recalculate), the table doesn't update and I get the following
error message:
Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, (4)
I see this as well.
I can provide example tables if necessary.
The example below is sufficient.
I tried the example table given in section 3.5.10 of the documentation
and I get the same error.

I will appreciate any help with this issue. If it can't be fixed, I will
have to downgrade to 8.2.10.
Can you try the attached patch? It seems to work on the example from the
manual, but you likely have more straining examples at hand.
