Views Calc not summing values correctly

Issue Summary

I'm having a rather strange problem. Views Calc does not sum correctly unless a user has the "administer node" permission enabled. It adds more, as if it's including additional values. I first noticed this problem with version Views Calc 6.x-1.3. I updated to the dev version and am still having this issue.

I suspect there's a conflict with another module, but haven't pinpointed it yet. I have Views: 6.x-2.12 running on Drupal 6.20.

I've been banging my head looking for a solution but can't seem to find one other than enabling administer node permission for everyone, which I'm not going to do. Any idea what's going on here?

I disabled the content access module. This seemed to solve the problem.

I am not using content access, but I am using organic groups. Inconsistantly I see sums that include doubling of some of the columns values. Stangely, if I update the nodes being totalled, the problem often corrects itself.

This is using the latest released version. Should I try the dev version?
