File that makes oowriter crash

[Thomas Schwinge]

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Hallo!

I'm attaching a file that makes oowriter crash. It opens the ``Document
Recovery'' window (``an unexpected error''), but without listing any
files in the ``will be recovered'' list. If I click OK, the process is
terminated.

Running like ``oowriter -norestore *.docx'', it doesn't launch either,
and the process terminates without any error message.

Grüße,
 Thomas
