I spent a long time looking for this bug as well, but could never reproduce
it. I have closed the bug, mailed the person who reported it, and closed
it. I am confident that if I cannot reproduce it and Sam looked into the
cause and believes it's not AbiWord related, it probably isn't. Thanks for
checking this out, Sam!
