 Again, this appears to be a a regression between 3.3.0 and OOo-Dev

 file a bug report any longer (at least I've no idea how). But hopefully
 someone from Apache will pick up on this post and see if they can pass

 file a bug report with LO.

I have WinXP on a VMWare virtual machine; opened the file in MS Word
viewer and get all 6 pages (2-5 are dual columns, page 6 is the
references page). Not sure if the PDF will be accepted as an attachment,
but I'll give it a try (it's 29.2KB) so that it can be used for comparison.

That is basically the same as the original opened in Pages on my Mac.

Interesting  thanks for testing.

On WinXP OOo didn't crash (but dual columns in 2-5, no page 6 with
references):

OOo 3.3.0
OpenOffice.org 3.3.0
OOO330m20 (build:9567)

or

OOo-Dev (Windows)
OOo-dev 3.4.0
OOO340m0 (Build:9583)

LO (Windows same VM):
LibreOffice 3.3.4
OOO330m19 (Build:401)
tag libreoffice-3.3.4.1

Doesn't crash. Again, dual columns in 2-5, no page 6 with references. I
wonder why this only crashes non-windows versions.

So it appears that there are two issues: 1) the .docx crashes other
non-windows versions tested (linux, Mac), and 2) even when the file
opens it is missing the references page. OOo 3.2.1 (go-oo Ubuntu
distribution build linux)
OpenOffice.org 3.2.1
OOO320m19 (Build:9505)
ooo-build 3.2.1.4, Ubuntu package 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1. opens the document 
displays the reference page, but 2-6 are single column.

Overall pretty disappointing results as the .docx doesn't contain
anything special (formating-wise).

If I get time I'll try to save to a .doc and see if there are any major
differences.

 I think that I may have found the issue; I opened in MS Word 2002 with
 the MS odf extension installed and found that there is an extra section
 between the last text column and the references page. In other words it
 went from section 2 at intent of the law could be solidified. to a
 blank section 3, and then section 4 which is the 'Refrences' page. I
 deleted the section 3 and then did a saveas. Attached is the .docx from
 that  it no longer crashes my linux OOO's or LO's.
 
 Seems odd that a blank section would cause this. Please test on the Mac.
 Thanks.

This is interesting. I tried your document on the following:

OpenOffice.org 3.2.1
OOO320m19 (Build:9505)
ooo-build 3.2.1.4, Ubuntu package 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1.

The file opens properly and displays 7 full pages of text including
References and Biography etc., with no problem.

2. OOo-Dev (standard build linux)
OOo-dev 3.4.0
DEV300m106 (Build:9582)

Crashes OOo immediately  leaves a lock file in place.

3. LibreOffice 3.3.4 (standard build linux)
LibreOffice 3.3.4
OOO330m19 (Build:401)
tag libreoffice-3.3.4.

Crashes LO immediately  leaves a lock file in place.

4. LibreOffice 3.4.4 (standard build linux)
LibreOffice 3.4.4
OOO340m1 (Build:402)

Crashes LO immediately  leaves a lock file in place.

Unfortunately I no longer have earlier 'standard' OOo versions installed
or I would have tested with them as well. In any event it appears that
you have a reportable bug.

Found an old version of Windows 2KPro on one of my virtual machines that
still has OOo 3.3.0 OOO330m20 (build:9567) and opening the .docx file in
that demonstrates what you probably are experiencing: only 5 pages, dual
columns in pages 2-5, and no References and Biography page.

Again, this appears to be a a regression between 3.3.0 and OOo-Dev
