Is there an incompatibility between the packages calc and siunitx? (GenericError […])

The following code does not compile:
documentclass[11pt]{article}
usepackage{calc}
usepackage{siunitx}
begin{document}
begin{tabular}{p{.5cm}p{widthof{textbf{AAAAAAAAA}}}l}
&textbf{AAAAAAAAA}&XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\
&textbf{BBBBB}&YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY\
end{tabular}
end{document}
However, it does compile, when the line
usepackage{siunitx}
is omitted. Interchanging the loading order of the packages does not help.
Error message:
! Undefined control sequence.
GenericError ...
#4 errhelp @err@ ...
l.5 ...r}{p{.5cm}p{widthof{textbf{AAAAAAAAA}}}l}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `Ihbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

It is no siunitx but array (loaded by siunitx). It changes the way tabular preambles are handled.

array package should probably have made this safe, one way to patch it is
documentclass[11pt]{article}
usepackage{calc}
usepackage{array}
usepackage{etoolbox}
makeatletter
patchcmd @mkpream
{let@sharprelax}
{defwidthof##1{unexpanded{widthof{##1}}}let@sharprelax}
{}{}
makeatother
begin{document}
begin{tabular}{p{.5cm}p{widthof{textbf{AAAAAAAAA}}}l}
&textbf{AAAAAAAAA}&XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\
&textbf{BBBBB}&YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY\
end{tabular}

I have now added a fix to the array package (somewhat more general than the above). The next release of LaTeX's tools (planned for December 2018) will contain this.
