Test file for reproduction

Following up on issue 106303, there are still troubles with password protected
database macro libraries. It only happens with bug libraries.

The password for the attached file is testtest32. Open the file and run macro
foo2. There are a couple of errors (e.g., "unknown. Internal error $(ARG1).")
that do not show up anymore when I enter the password of the library.

The module Module1 in your attachment contains 246146 characters.

Apache OpenOffice Basic does not work correctly with modules approaching or
exceeding 65535 characters.
For your information, the same errors appear in LibreOffice 4.3.5.

Easy work-around : 
Put your code into several routines stored in several modules of the same
library. Subroutine names are public to all modules.

Thanks for the hint.

I can confirm that splitting the huge module into many smaller modules under
65k characters is a workaround. The other advantage is that you need to get
your libraries well structured. There is just no clue when you hit the 65k
limit.
