The current Editor's Draft [1] states:

# Given the complexities of 'width' and 'height' on table cells and table elements, 
# calc() expressions for 'width' and 'height' on table columns, table column groups, 
# table rows, table row groups, and table cells in both auto and fixed layout tables 
# are treated as if 'auto' had been specified.

>From the introductory part of the sentence - 'table cells and table elements' - and the 
subsequent enumeration, it's currently unclear whether display:table is one of the display
types for which calc() expressions resolve to auto.
