Comment 2 for bug 1578538

It is not related with a particular file. It happens with previously
created files. An example:

1. *Open the attached file*.
2. *Change it* (for example open one of the glyphs,and add a triangle to
the letter "d", as I just did to verify)
3. Save it,* overwriting it, but using the "Save as..." dialog*. The first
time you save everything goes fine; the second time it will get stuck
saving...

On my laptop it got stuck for approx. 8 minutes, then I decided to kill the
process manually.

Cheers
